When an advice columnist’s picture-perfect life implodes, she opts to go rogue in this hilarious, heartwarming romance from the author of Meet Me in Paradise.
Violet Covington pens Dear Sweetie, the most popular advice column in the state of North Carolina. She has an answer for how to politely handle any difficult situation…until she discovers her husband, Sam, has been cheating on her. Furious and out of sensible solutions, Violet leaves her filter at the door and turns to her column to air her own frustrations. The new, brutally honest Dear Sweetie goes viral, sending more shock waves through Violet’s life. When she burns Sam’s belongings in a front-yard, late-night bonfire, a smoking-hot firefighter named Dez shows up to douse the flames, and an unexpected fling quickly shows potential to become something longer lasting.
A lot of people want to see the old polished Violet return—including her boss, who finds her unpredictability hard to manage, and Sam, who’s begging for another chance. But Dez appreciates Violet just the way she is—in fact, he can’t get enough of her. The right answers don’t come easily when Violet finds herself at her own personal crossroads. But maybe, by getting real, Violet can write her own happy ending.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
While burning her ex-husband's belongings, an advice columnist sets a fireman's heart ablaze in this cute rom-com from Hubscher (Meet Me in Paradise). Reeling in the aftermath of her husband's infidelity, Violet Covington uses her usually tame advice column as an outlet for her pain, becoming a viral sensation for her cutting answers. Firefighter Dez recognizes her suffering, as he too has been through great loss, and he's more than happy to become her distraction. Both expect their relationship to be a temporary fling, but Dez's chivalrous gestures and enduring patience will have readers crushing on him right alongside Violet, and Violet's refreshing candidness and spontaneous personality captivate Dez just as much. But Violet's still a mess, and when she accidentally outs her husband's mistress by name in her column (a big no-no), she must get a grip on her grief before she loses her career, her best friend, and her first chance at true happiness. Hubscher alternates hilarity with probing explorations of healing and self-acceptance. It's an uplifting, insightful treat.
