[Bliss Cove 03] • Love Me Tender

Rory Prescott is desperate for a place to stay before she leaves Bliss Cove for her lucrative new tech job. Tavern owner Grant Taylor is desperate for a date to his brother's wedding before his mother tries to marry him off next.

Grant makes Rory a deal - he'll let her stay in his cottage if she'll pretend to be his girlfriend. Though the two friends bicker over everything from her love of gummy worms to the horrible singing fish he has on the tavern wall, "pretending" to like each other isn't a stretch.

As they share close quarters, argue about cell phones, and exchange more than one hot kiss , their fake relationship soon becomes passionately real.

But Grant's family battles and Rory's impending career move shut down any possibility of a happy ending. Their sexy, tender romance is about to crash and burn...unless they're willing to risk everything for love.
