If you love grumpy heroes with soft centres, sunny heroines who refuse to give up, and small towns where everyone knows your business (and wants to meddle in it), you’re going to fall head‑over‑heels for Finding Love Next Door.
This cosy, feel‑good collection brings together four complete clean romances about neighbours who never expected love to show up on their doorstep… but discover that sometimes the best things in life are right next door.
Romance and I broke up.
Forever.
Irreconcilable differences.
Yet somehow, I’m fake-dating a hermit like an iPhone upgrade I didn’t ask for.
The Sweetpines’ matchmaking festival is legendary.
I didn’t sign up.
Instead, my traitorous besties entered me.
Then Beau Callahan, my BFF’s brother, gets picked as my match.
He’s a broody handyman, allergic to conversation and hiding a guitar pick necklace like a state secret.
I’m an overzealous florist with a big personality.
Admittedly, a bit out there.
We’re opposites with a capital O, but even the town dog approves.
So we agree to fake-date just for the festival—
with everyone watching.
Then “Sayonara.”
Zero complications.
Zero feelings.
Except teamwork feels natural, and he defends me publicly.
A cozy one-bed cabin sparks blushes.
One moonlit kiss, and I’m done pretending.
So much for “no romance.”
I’m in love.
But his mysterious past is impossible to ignore. And so is his ex.
If Beau doesn’t fight for us, we’ll crash and burn.
And I’ll be left with nothing but ashes.
Picked & Playing Along is a sweet closed-door romantic comedy. All the sizzling chemistry. No spice, no steam, no swearing.
A Perfect Match for fans of Jenny Proctor and Ellie Hall: a heartwarming romance set in a charming, rural United States town; witty, laugh-out-loud comedy; humorous relationship & dating mishaps; as well as emotional journeys of overcoming heartbreak through the healing touch of music & a soulmate’s love.
