After losing my mom and going through a painful breakup, I needed a fresh start. My plan was simple: focus on my art, avoid complications, and heal. But then Jake Harper, my next-door neighbor with a smile that could melt even the hardest heart, entered the picture. I didn't come here looking for love—especially not after everything I've been through—but every moment with Jake makes me question that decision. He's kind, steady, and there's something about him that makes me feel safe in a way I haven't felt in years. The problem? I've been burned before, and trusting again doesn't come easy. Isolating myself in my mom's old cottage became my escape from the past. But maybe, just maybe, it's time to take a chance on love. Because the way Jake looks at me... it's different. It feels real. Is it possible to start over and open your heart when it's been broken before? All I have to do is not screw it all up. As usual... - This romance novel is Mia's life, sweet, clumsy, but also sexy and spicy. Art is her passion, but she will soon discover new wonders of a small town.
