About The Book
Levi Bishop prefers his life orderly and borderline silent. However, between his siblings’ getting him elected as chief of police, his full-time job as a contractor and his fledgling career as a thriller author his plate is overflowing.
This cat dad doesn’t have time for one more distraction. Which is why he never should have gone next door to investigate the ruckus.
Grace Healey has fond memories of visiting Story Lake as a kid and she’s determined to provide a summer of lakeside memories for her girls. Her emergency fresh start is off to a rocky beginning with a security alarm and the sudden appearance of her new tattooed, shirtless next-door neighbour.
Grace’s baggage is the kind that comes served with family trauma and a side of fight or flight. She really, really needs this next chapter to be a good one. When she lands her dream job at a bookstore and her girls start making friends at summer camp she can almost let herself breathe again.
The only thing complicating things is Levi. Mr. Fix It, Mr. Last-Minute Nanny. Mr. So Attractive He Can’t Be Human. If he knew the truth, she would lose everything and she’s not going to let that happen … even if it means giving up on her small-town dreams.
About the Author
Lucy is a Wall Street Journal and #1 Amazon Kindle Store bestseller of romantic comedies and contemporary romance. She grew up in rural Pennsylvania with a lot of time on her hands and a big imagination. She was the oldest of three in a book-obsessed household. Dinners were often spent in silence while family members had their noses buried in books. A passion for writing took hold at five when she taught her brother to write his name on the bathroom door.
She started writing (on paper) in the second grade, first about pilgrims on the Mayflower and over the years graduated to essays, articles, blogs, and finally books. “Pretend You’re Mine” was her runaway hit and she’s been writing full-time ever since.
Non-romance-writing jobs have included event planner, bartender, newspaper lackey, and yoga instructor.
Lucy and Mr. Lucy, enjoy spending time with their 1.7 million nieces and nephews and laying on beaches with umbrella drinks.
