New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Rowe delivers another winner when small-town matchmakers decide a handsome billionaire is the perfect man for a sassy single mom who is too busy for love.
★★★★★ "This book grabs you and tugs at your heartstrings from beginning to end." ~Marie B (Amazon Review)
When billionaire entrepreneur Griffin Friesé arrives in small-town Birch Crossing to fix a mistake from his past that still haunts him, he quickly discovers that life in the close-knit lake town doesn't move at the speed he's used to. He soon finds himself stranded in town while he tries to sort out his past…and the only available lodging is far from the five-star luxury he's used to.
Clare Gray is a widowed single mom in need of a renter for her spare room. When the sexy out-of-town bachelor moves in to her home for a few weeks, her tidy world is upended by the interfering, cocky, and endearingly vulnerable big city businessman.
Late-night baking sessions involving lots of wayward chocolate, sizzling attraction, and long-held secrets combust into a surprising, intense connection between the two opposites.
They both know he'll be leaving town soon, but what happens when Griffin realizes he wants more from the single mom who has given up on love?

Great read
This was a great read. I really enjoyed it and looks forward to other books from this author.
POWERFUL
It made me laugh, it made me cry (a lot), it also made me wish for more.
Overall sweet
The beginning I was ready to give up on the book bc it was all long drawn out thoughts and some repetitive. It was like 80 pages of “get on with it.” Haha but I held on and the story progressed. The dialogue that was lacking in the beginning finally picked up. More fun characters came into play. The book was good enough to elicit real emotion from me. I did cry at one point. Parts of it, I was annoyed at the adults and their immature “one track minds” thinking they couldn’t change when all it really takes is deciding to change if that’s what you want. They seemed to have made it harder than it needed to be. The 15 years with no date seemed unrealistic. But, overall it was a sweet storyline.
