An Instant USA Today Bestseller
One surprise inheritance, two best friends (now bitter exes), and three months to prove he loves her, forever and always, in this swoony second-chance romance for fans of Alexandria Bellefleur and Ashley Herring Blake.
Hannah Rosenstein should be happy: after a lonely childhood of traipsing all over the world, she finally has a home as the co-owner of destination inn Carrigan’s All Year. But her thoughts keep coming back to Levi "Blue" Matthews: her first love, worst heartbreak, and now, thanks to her great-aunt’s meddling will, absentee business partner.
When Levi left Carrigan's, he had good intentions. As the queer son of the inn's cook and groundskeeper, he never quite fit in their small town and desperately wanted to prove himself. Now that he’s a celebrity chef, he's ready to come home and make amends. Only his return goes nothing like he planned: his family's angry with him, his best friend is dating his nemesis, and Hannah just wants him to leave. Again.
Levi sees his chance when a VIP bride agrees to book Carrigan’s—if he’s the chef. He'll happily cook for the wedding, and in exchange, Hannah will give him five dates to win her back. Only Hannah doesn’t trust this new Levi, and Levi’s coming to realize Hannah’s grown too. But if they find the courage to learn from the past . . . they just might discover the love of your life is worth waiting for.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Greer returns to the Jewish-owned Adirondack inn and Christmas tree farm Carrigan's All Year (after Season of Love) for a moving lifelong love story complete with a satisfying dose of personal growth for both protagonists. Hannah Rosenstein's shenanigans-filled childhood best friendship with demisexual Levi Matthews, whose parents lived and worked at her aunt Cass's inn, pivoted to romance when they were young adults. Their relationship exploded when Levi, who always longed to travel the world and follow his dreams of becoming a professional chef, did just that, while Hannah's lingering trauma from her parents' itinerant lifestyle left her unwilling to leave. When Cass dies, she leaves the inn to both Hannah and Levi, now in their late 30s, and Levi returns to take over the kitchen—and win Hannah back. Greer braids the two timelines and alternates between her protagonists' perspectives, carefully placing neither of them in the wrong. Meanwhile, their collaboration on managing a VIP wedding at the inn highlights how good they are together even in a nonromantic context. Greer manages a surprising amount of emotional depth while still highlighting the joy of big events and magical locations. Readers, like the charming supporting characters surrounding Hannah and Levi, will be rooting for this well-matched pair.
