One woman must learn to love again with the help of her supper club friends and the man next door in this delightful enemies-to-lovers small-town romance.
The best meals. The perfect company. And just enough sparks to make it complicated . . .
Serenity Wheeler’s Supper Club is all about getting together with great friends, incredible food, and a whole lot of dishing—not for hooking up. Still, Serenity knows inviting her friend’s brother to one of her dinners is just good manners, but the ultra-fine, hazel-eyed Gabriel Cunningham has a gift for saying the wrong thing at the really wrong time. Especially when it comes to her cooking.
Gabriel isn’t quite sure how they got off on the wrong foot, but something about Serenity makes him nervous. Maybe it’s because he’s new to the small-town vibe. Maybe it’s because the woman is so gorgeous that he can’t think straight. Or maybe it’s because there’s an attraction between them he can’t seem to shake.
Though refreshments and camaraderie may be the supper club’s mantra, Serenity and Gabriel know there’s more between them than just sharing delicious meals. But she can’t let herself fall for Gabriel. Because while cooking with love is one thing, trusting it is quite another...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Lister (Love's Sweet Surrender) enchants with a tale of two city slickers who find love in a small town. Nurse and amateur chef Serenity Wheeler left San Diego after a contentious breakup, landing in the idyllic Firefly Lake, Calif., and forging close friendships. When one of these friends, Andrea, takes a job in Seattle, she asks that Serenity show her brother around town. Software engineer Gabriel Cunningham isn't thrilled to be relocating to Firefly Lake from Atlanta, but he agrees to take over the responsibility of caring for his grandmother from Andrea—secretly hoping he'll be able to convince his grandmother to move back to Atlanta. Gabriel and Serenity get off on the wrong foot—culminating in Serenity throwing a container of brownies at Gabriel—but as they settle their differences and grow closer, Gabriel becomes much more enthusiastic about staying in California. Well-drawn supporting characters—including precocious local six-year-old Brianna—add charm, and Lister nails the pacing of her appealing protagonists' path to love. Anyone who enjoys small-town and enemies-to-lovers tropes will be delighted.
