Surprised By Her

When my boss at Bluebird Pottery, Sydney, left me in charge while she went on vacation with her girlfriend, I wasn't looking forward to it. During my first few hours, a tall, stunning stranger walked in, and I could barely breathe. Of course I ruined everything by spilling coffee all over her. What I didn't expect was for her to push me up against the sink and kiss the hell out of me when I tried to help her clean up in the bathroom.

I never thought I'd see her again, and then she showed up to my book club and introduced herself as Ryan Jewel, the heiress to a candle company fortune and is so far out of my league, we're not even on the same planet. Still, I keep running into her in Arrowbridge, and it doesn't feel like a coincidence.

At first, I'm happy to be sucked into Ryan's glittering orbit. Everything is first class all the way, and it's nice to have a little luxury in my life. Even beyond the money, I'm dazzled by her. Underneath her chilly exterior is someone who's secretly kind, and funny, and who cares fiercely for those she loves.

It doesn't take long for me to completely fall for her, but could she ever want a small-town life with someone like me?
