All-American Girl

At the age of thirty, with two failed marriages and a tanking writing career,

Samantha Moore deals with the world with the only tool she had left: anger.

And she's tired of it. When her grandmother's near-death sends her rushing

back home to Vermont, she hopes for the chance to overcome the rage ruling her

life. Once she's home, Lance Cummings becomes a constant source of

indigestion. Lance is a single father who learned first-hand the devastating

effects of a damaging relationship. He sees through Samantha's nasty temper-

straight to her cry for help. He wants to help her, but he also wants to know

why Samantha ran from him-and their future-twelve years before. Taking care of

her Grams, dealing with an alcoholic brother, and getting Lance to remove his

annoyingly attractive nose from her business is draining on Samantha. And

she's only got three weeks to finish her stagnated novel or her publisher will

drop her. No pressure. To top it off, pretending to hate the man she actually

loves makes each day in Vermont harder than the last. Especially when Lance

turns up the heat.
