Book Description
Her plans to save her small town didn't include a pig playing cupid…or falling for the enemy. Superstition Springs native Havana Nixon is convinced letting a big developer into their tiny Texas oasis is the only way to save the town, and she's not about to let a newcomer, no matter how gorgeous, derail her plans. Ex Navy SEAL Caleb Hardy is determined to atone for past mistakes by helping the old woman whose letters got him through his last deployment. When he and his band of brothers drop into her quirky, dying Texas town, only one thing stands in the way of his redemption: Havana. When Havana's aunt tosses out one of her famous "love predictions"—matching Havana with Caleb—the town is set for the showdown of the century. Havana and Caleb can't even compromise, let alone admit they're falling for each other—will this be the one love prediction that fails to come true? A Lot Like Home is a small town, closed door military romance with enemies to lovers vibes, chemistry galore and lots of swoony moments, but NO spice for readers who love an alpha male SEAL hero and want less heat. Tropes: · Enemies to lovers · Matchmaking aunt · She’s back home for good this time · Alpha cinnamon roll SEAL hero · Wounded warrior (his scars are on the inside) · She’s giving the whole town a glow-up · Slow burn · Closed door/kissing only Keywords: contemporary romance, small town, small town romance, enemies to lovers, series, romantic series, women’s fiction, romance saga, romantic small town, series starter, first in series, first in series free, romance series, romance saga, romantic family saga, heartwarming, heart-warming, heartwarming romance, clean & wholesome, clean & wholesome romance, family, love, love books, kissing books, emotional journey, captivating romance, emotional, healing, swoon, funny romance, modern romance, new release, matchmaker, alpha hero, military hero, hero with a heart of gold, strong female lead, strong heroine

Fans of Netflix's On My Block and readers of Elizabeth Acevedo and Angie Thomas will love this debut novel about a girl whose life is turned upside down after one local act of vandalism throws both her relationships and neighborhood into turmoil. Chinelo, or Nelo as her best friend Kate calls her, is all about her neighborhood Ginger East. She loves its chill vibe, ride-or-die sense of community, and the memories she has growing up there with her friends. Ginger East isn't what it used to be though. After a deadly incident at the local arcade, most of her friends' families moved away. Kate, whose family owns the local corner store, is still there and as long as that stays constant, Nelo's good. When Kate's parent's store is vandalized and the vandal still at large, Nelo is shaken to her core. And then the police and the media get involved and more of the outside world descends upon Ginger East with promises to "fix the neighborhood." Suddenly, Nelo finds herself in the middle of a drama unfolding on a national scale. Worse yet, Kate is acting strange. She's pushing Nelo away at the exact moment they need each other most. Now Nelo's entire world is morphing into something she hates and she must figure out how to get things back on track or risk losing everything--and everyone--she loves.

The best Destiny can do is a fake relationship with her swoon-worthy bodyguard? Calypso Elliot creates chaos wherever she goes, a hurricane in a handbasket who came to Superstition Springs to restart her life, not attract the attention of a stalker. The last thing she expects is for Garrison Rockwell to jump at the chance to play her fake boyfriend-slash-bodyguard. He attends to her every need. Takes care of her and her problems. It’s so…sexy. Ex-Navy vet Garrison Rockwell likes everything in its place and structures his life in this tiny Texas town to ensure it stays that way. It makes no sense why he’d be so intensely attracted to a hot mess like Calypso Elliot. They’re totally incompatible. But faking things is so much fun, it’s easy to forget. Except Calypso is the opposite of a woman Garrison can build a normal, non-chaotic life with. She’s not so sure he can handle a woman like her long term, either. There’s no way this can last forever…even if they fall for each other. Small town military heroes—all swoon, no steam Welcome to Superstition Springs, the place where destiny is the ultimate matchmaker. All you have to do is believe.

Sure, Destiny, match her up with a gorgeous blackmailer who brings her donuts and entices her to reevaluate her life choices… Ex-Navy veteran Blake Keller is the world’s worst blackmailer. He came to the small town of Superstition Springs, Texas to enroll his teammate who needs immediate help with PTSD symptoms into an art therapy program, only to find it doesn’t exist yet. His mission: use his newly acquired intel about the consultant working on the project as leverage to force her to move faster. Except his special ops training never covered how to manage a pretty brunette who checks every one of his boxes and has major distraction written all over her. Aurora Elliot is the world’s worst undercover agent. Yes, she’s a real non-profit consultant who’s volunteering to spend a couple of pro-bono days on the therapy program, but after learning she was adopted, she’s really in town to scope out which of the residents is her birth mother. Her mission: leave before the woman can reject her again. Five minutes into her covert investigation, the far-too-charming and charismatic Blake Keller has uncovered the truth. His deal: let him oversee her progress on the program and he’ll keep his mouth shut. Her counter offer: a partnership. Soon they’re working together in close quarters, willfully sharing secrets and baring their souls in the world’s worst attempt to ignore the sparks flying between them. The timing for romance is all wrong. But when Serenity hands them love predictions signifying it’s meant to be, all bets are off…until Blake finds out Aurora never planned to stay.
