Must Have Been Love

From million-copy bestseller Carrie Elks comes a small town romance featuring a grumpy single dad, fiery enemies to lovers tension, and a happily ever after worth fighting for.

Inheriting a rundown bar from the father who abandoned me should be my chance to start over.

Instead, it puts me directly in the path of Hudson Fitzgerald—single dad, small town royalty, and the most insufferable man I've ever met. He's rich, broody, and way too good-looking for my peace of mind. Oh, and he wants me gone.

But I didn't come here just to tuck my tail and run away. I came to prove I'm not the hot mess everyone thinks I am. Even if that means going head-to-head with Hudson every single day.

He thinks I'm chaos in a crop top. I think he's a control freak with a stick where the sun doesn't shine. But beneath all that tension is something else. Something electric.

And when he kisses me? Let's just say, for a man who claims he doesn't do messy, he sure knows how to make a mess of me.

I was only supposed to be here long enough to fix up my bar. I never meant to fall for the man who runs this place like he owns it. But in a small town like this, love has a way of sneaking up on you.
