Return to Lovett Cove

Trading boardrooms for coastal back roads wasn't part of Jasmine's plan—but neither was falling for the man who sees through her armor.

Jasmine Grove has one mission: sign the paperwork, sell her late mother's run-down B&B in the sleepy mountain beach town of Lovett Cove, and get back to her fast-paced life in Philadelphia. She's days away from the promotion of her dreams, and nothing—not leaky plumbing, not suspiciously charming locals, and certainly not the shirtless, rugged attorney-handyman—can get in her way. After all, her mother taught her to be ruthless in business; that doesn't quite work with an inn.

River Scott gave up city life for a slower pace and a new start after a tough divorce. He owes Jasmine's mother everything and promised he'd help Lily's daughter see the magic of Lovett Cove. What he didn't expect was for sparks to fly between him and the uptight marketing exec who calls his peaceful town a death trap. And how can he believe he deserves a second chance at love?

But when a medical emergency stops Jasmine in her tracks and forces her to re-evaluate everything, will she walk away from love and legacy—or finally find what her heart's truly been missing?

Perfect for fans of Robyn Carr and Tessa Bailey (the PG version!) and readers who swoon for opposites-attract dynamics, small-town charm, and a heaping, delicious bite of a cinnamon roll hero. If you love Sullivan's Crossing and Sweet Magnolias, you'll love this sweet romance.

This cozy, sweet romance novelette is a complete story.
