Quitting her job and moving to a small apartment above Daisy’s Dress Shop in Larkin Bay means Amber can try to write a best-selling novel, heal from past heartbreak, and convince her doting family she can be independent. Or so she hopes.
But when Rowan, the relationship-skittish son of her beloved landlady, comes to town (along with his large and drooly rescue dog) to help his mother with her store, they find themselves irresistibly drawn into each other’s lives.
They might want to deny their powerful attraction, but love has other plans. As they try to move past old hurts, Amber’s fear of dogs, and align their dreams, things get messy.
Falling in love just shouldn’t be this hard.
Amber’s been (literally) bitten, and now she’s twice shy- until she meets her landlord’s son (again!).
