Top It With Cream & Say Please

Having spent the summer antagonising Rupert, the gorgeous sweet shop owner next door, I'm ready to make amends. Unfortunately, he thinks I'm a prick.

Rupert might be uptight and annoying, but he's also the most interesting man I've ever met, and I'm utterly intrigued by him. When one casual hangout blossoms into friendship, I can't help feeling I've misjudged the man I've spent months annoying.

But Rupert guards his heart carefully. He's convinced nobody wants to be around someone so prickly and sensitive, and refuses to let anyone in.

I'm not one to back down from a challenge, and I know there's more to the bright, beautiful man next door than he's ever let anyone see. It won't be easy, but I'm determined to show Rupert he's not the unlovable irritation he believes himself to be.

In fact, we might just be perfect for each other.
