Publisher Description
Down in Whynot, NC, there are three things that hold true: 1) life moves just a little bit slower, 2) family means everything, and 3) you don’t mess with history.
When his family decides to sell a home that’s been part of their history for over a century, Lowe Mancinkus is madder than a hornet. To add insult to injury, the woman who purchased it is some fancy pants, city girl looking to fix it up and sell it off. Doesn’t matter that she’s sexy as hell or that just being near her gets his blood racing like never before. That home belongs to his family, or at least it did until she came to town.
Well that just won’t do, now will it?
From the moment that she laid eyes on the historical home in rural North Carolina, Melinda Rothschild knew Mainer House was something special. The perfect escape from life in New York City, Melinda signed the papers and set to work restoring the house to its natural beauty. That is until an angry Lowe showed up on her doorstep one day. With a scowl on his handsome, chiseled face. And a shotgun in his strong, muscular arms.
Is it getting hot in here?
Melinda’s about to get a lesson on life in the south, but Lowe is about to learn a lesson of his own – this city girl doesn’t back down from a fight.
Customer Reviews
A complete feel good book
Well, just like book 1, this is another honest to goodness happy, feel good book that left me all warm and fuzzy. Enemies to lovers, we follow Lowe Mancinkus who has been ordered by Judge Bowe to fix up his beloved Mainer House after he made a few unwanted changes to it following its sale to rich New Yorker Melinda Rothschild. Written in dual POV with a few chapters from additional character’s POV, the story was funny, romantic and the writing was just perfect. All the characters from Whynot are very small town and highly amusing, and Mely has to learn to adjust to all the small town gossip, as does her best friend Morri when he comes to visit (Morri by the way is hilarious). Lowe is a perfect gentleman, super sexy and with just the right amount of alpha. Mely is his perfect partner in every way. Fantastic characters, laugh out loud moments and a superb slow burn romance. I can't wait for book 3. A was provided with an advanced copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
