I came back for one assignment… and fell for my grumpy billionaire ex all over again.
Grayson Rivers is the kind of man a woman should avoid twice.
I already know because I tried surviving him once.
He is guarded, gorgeous, impossible to impress, and somehow even more dangerous now that he has a little girl who looks at me like I might be the missing piece in their life.
I’m supposed to keep things professional.
I have an article to finish, a deadline to meet, and a tiny coastal town that clearly did not get the memo about minding its own business.
But then Grayson starts showing up when I need him, softening when his daughter smiles, and looking at me like he remembers every almost we never got to finish.
The more time I spend with them, the more I want a place to belong.
But choosing Grayson means risking the future I fought for.
And leaving Blakely Bay would not feel like chasing my dream this time.
It would feel like abandoning it.

A sweet, clean romance filled with small-town charm, found family, and a happily ever after that will leave your heart smiling.
