Definitely Not Lovers (Damian & Maddie #1‪)‬

Definitely NOT Lovers (prequel novel to # Dear Santa, With Love): Sometimes, the only thing steamier than the town's crab feast is the couple arguing at table five...

Exclusive: Maddie Smith—nickname: Ice Princess—Melts for Grumpy Hero. Sources Say She's in Denial.

Swans Cove: the small-town where I'm rebuilding my award-winning career, not falling for the tall, tattooed, grumpy ex-bodyguard next door. Damian Mack doesn't trust me, I don't like him, and he's definitely not infuriatingly hot. (Okay, maybe a little.)

My rom-com life took a horror movie turn when my "perfect" proposal went viral—for all the wrong reasons. And here I am: writing feel-good stories, "trying" to charm the locals (well, some of them), and feeling like I'm stuck in pit lane while everyone else is racing by.

But between nosy neighbors and an unwanted attraction that's throwing off my game, my foolproof plan is getting more complicated by the minute.

"Definitely Not Lovers" is my story—a rollercoaster of humor, heart, and heat that I never saw coming. Will I stick to my plan and prove everyone wrong, or will Swans Cove—and Damian—make me reconsider everything?

One thing's for sure, this wasn't part of the plan. Now, what would a winner do?

This is a prequel novel that ends on a cliffhanger... maybe like me, you'll just keep wanting more.
