Vic Hayes is content with life in Whispering Cove. She owns a successful salon, has great friends and her perfectly manicured nail is on the pulse of the townโs gossip. For real happiness, sheโs only missing one thingโa man. Settling for less than the perfect man, though, isnโt in her nature. He just has to see her as more than his best friend.
Widower Hauk Michaelsen always dreamed of escaping Whispering Cove, until single fatherhood, too young, made it impossible. He enjoys his life as owner of the small town pub. Friends, gossip, and his young daughter keep things jumping. He would do anything for his little girl, but he canโt give her the one thing she desires mostโa mother.
When Vic and Hauk are teamed up for a Fall Festival project, sparks ignite suppressed flames. Testing boundaries theyโve never crossed, they find themselves eager to risk moreโif Vic can convince Hauk that history wonโt be repeated if he takes another chance on love.
Warning: To all the lonely guys out there: beware best (girl)friends and invites for coffee at the crack of dawn. Itโs possibly not your double shot mocha latte sheโs looking to wrap her hands or her lips around.
