Publisher Description
A wealthy college graduate who needs to escape her boring life. A small-town farmer who needs some help. And a job offer that will change everything.
Ariana Titan hates her life. She has everything but doesn't want any of it. Her wealthy father controls every aspect of her days. Her apartment is starting to feel like a prison cell. She longs to run away to the countryside like in the movies she watches at night. When her father's girlfriend mentions a job posting for a social media marketing manager at a small town farm, she decides to apply…in person. She maybe fails to tell her father exactly where she's gone.
Eric Windsor's farm needs a marketing makeover. He knows business but social media and online marketing are not his strong suits. He needs help and he needs it yesterday. When a young woman shows up at his property with a mile-long list of references and an impressive degree from a fancy university, he hires her on the spot. He soon figures out that his new employee is not only a fish out of water in his coastal town, but she also has the uncanny ability to bring a smile to his face, something that hasn't happened in a long time.
Can Ariana stay afloat while grappling with her past amid a sea of marketing chaos, her overbearing father, and her new overprotective boss? While she fights to swim instead of sink, one burning question remains in her mind: will her mysterious farmer employer be part of her future?

Not My Fav of the Series But Still Cute
A subtle interpretation of the Little Mermaid taking place in the town of Storyview Falls, with the smalltown aesthetic that us Hallmark movie loving people crave. This age gap, smalltown, workplace rom-com is a quick sweet read with a couple tense moments and some steamy bedroom fun. I like where the author was going with this retelling and the Eric isn't your typical billionaire and that Ariana has this rebellious go getter side; however, there was just something about this story that just didn't do it for me and I can't put my finger on it. I didn't like the villian's arc (it felt a little too easy), and while Ariana's father is very over protective, there were things that felt incomplete/inconsistent when it came to his character. I enjoyed the first 2 books of the series and will be continuing, but this was just an okay for me.
