Rule #1 on the Everly Fletcher Matchmaking Manifesto…Never fall for your best friend’s grumpy brother.
Everly is the matchmaking mastermind of her family, but her own love life is a bit of a flop.
Back from four years in Dublin, she’s ready for a quiet summer on Fletcher Mountain helping launch her aunt’s animal rescue center—until Conri “Wolf” Reilly shows up.
Wolf is her college roommate’s infuriating twin brother. He’s brooding, Irish, and college rugby’s resident bad boy with thighs that could crack a watermelon.
His red card reputation has trashed his rugby prospects…until a training camp in Denver comes calling. As a favor, Everly reluctantly gets Wolf a place to stay if he volunteers at the rescue center.
Now Everly finds herself working and living next door to the Irish tattooed grump who treats her like a nuisance—but looks at her like he could press her up against a hay bale until they forget their own names.
Wolf swore he came to America to fix his image, not fall for his sister’s best friend, but the more time he spends with Everly, the harder it is to keep his distance.
Perhaps Everly’s in her bad boy era…or maybe Fletcher Mountain might has its own matchmaking plans.
Perfect for fans of: Grumpy x Sunshine Small Town Romance Irish Rugby Players Overprotective family Meghan Quinn and Tessa Bailey
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the delightful final volume of Daws's Mountain Man Matchmaker quartet (after Honeymoon Phase), the focus finally turns to perky Everly Fletcher, who, having successfully paired up her father and all three of her uncles, is now looking for love of her own. Unfortunately, her talent as a matchmaker doesn't translate to her own romantic life, which sees her nervously discussing her pooping habits while trying to flirt. As she prepares to graduate from Dublin's Trinity College and return to her Colorado hometown, Everly doesn't expect to have her best friend Cliona's surly twin brother, Conri "Wolf" Reilly, in tow. Wolf is a talented rugby player, but after getting into one too many fights on the pitch, no Irish team will take him. There's a fledgling squad in Denver that's interested, on the condition that he prove he can play nice with others. He recruits Everly to help clean up his image and, while working together at Everly's aunt's animal rescue, the pair let their guards down and fall in love. Daws delivers all the spice and raunchy humor that fans expect, coupled with touching displays of vulnerability. Cameos from past series leads add to the appeal. This is grumpy/sunshine done right.
