Her second chance comes with strings—him Navy veteran Hudson Rafferty is fine being alone with his nightmares and what’s left of his soul. He’s not fine with Ember Nixon calling dibs on the space in downtown Superstition Springs that he’s earmarked for his new restaurant.

The enigmatic ex-Navy guy doesn’t even acknowledge that she exists no matter how much she flirts with him. How can they possibly be partners? Or maybe a better question is…how did this partnership blossom into a budding romance that can never survive Hudson’s biggest dealbreaker? Tropes · Neurodiverse hero · Returning home · Single mom · Soulmates · Matchmaking aunt · Alpha cinnamon roll SEAL hero · Wounded warrior (his scars are on the inside) · Found family · Slow burn · Closed door/kissing only
