You might also have heard of heroes who were caught up in this plot, fighting to do the right thing. That sounds a lot more impressive than it actually was. My name is Boone Shepard. I’m here to set the record straight.”Boone is taking a break from writing for The Chronicle newspaper to hunt down and destroy every last copy of a very rare, very dangerous book.

And though they had been written in what Gwen thought was her mother’s handwriting, and based on the city addressed on the envelopes, had been penned ‘Dear Mother’ to Gwen’s grandmother. But strangely enough, there had been no return address marked on any of them. And for whatever reason, they had all been signed, ‘Love Rachel’.

    While she’d graduated from one of the top culinary schools in the world, her grandmomma had taught her how to cook; school had taught her how to play the game. She minded her own business, stayed out of shit, and kept her opinions to herself as she worked her way up through the French brigade system. Her station was spotless, her dishes had the southern grandmomma seal of approval. She never mixed business with pleasure. Of course, she’d never been tempted to…until she bumped into an Italian chef who knew his chocolate, his wine and his way to a woman’s heart. On a sabbatical from his executive chef position in one of Europe’s finest restaurants, he gave her plus size curves a second, third, fourth and fifth glance, gave her taste buds an adventure, and gave her hope that women like her could get HEAs. After he’d gotten what he wanted, he left her with a broken heart, a ruined reputation and a baby. Down, but not out, Nevena kept her head up, took her apprentice chef, and kept it moving. When she’d healed enough on the inside, she and her best friend bum-rushed their way into one of Atlanta’s hottest restaurants and won over its owner. Winning over the crowd of regulars who all seemed to have “aire” describing their net worth, they called her on her shit but they treated her like she was family. Knowing she had to spread her wings, they sent samples of her food to the owners of an upscale resort in Alaska. Once in Alaska, she discovered another group of people who considered her family, her complete ignorance about wildlife, and a man who made her heart beat in triple time. She knew she could love him. Her daughter did love him and her best friend encouraged her to jump on him and ride him into another Ice Age. Sheriff Dominic Kenai was an Alaskan grizzly shifter. He was also the law in Arcticus, Alaska. If you didn’t count what he did to people who fucked with his territory, there was zero point zero crime. Despite the new resort going up and the increasing number of tourists coming in, he was determined to keep that record intact. An alpha male with simple tastes, all he wanted was good coffee, peace and quiet, and a willing woman every now and then. And then he met Nevena and his bear went crazy. Determined to win her over, he took his time so that she could heal. He’d show her that he wasn’t like other men; he was better. He had the whole territory in his corner, along with Nevena’s daughter, her best friend and her brother. Now all he had to do was prove to her that loving him wasn’t a mistake.

    Champion Motors is shutting down plants and laying off their workers. Tensions are mounting and violence is erupting.

    Is there any phrase more chilling than that? Probably. But for me, they are the only words I’ve dreaded hearing since Guy Finch left our small town. My brother’s best friend. The bane of my childhood. Newest resident of Whispering Pine. There’s a fine line between love and hate, but when it comes to Guy, there’s no overlap. I hate him more than brownies with nuts. Cookies with raisins. Pineapple. On. Pizza. I’ve done everything in my power apart from black magic to avoid our reunion, but in a town as small as Whispering Pine, it’s only a matter of time before we cross paths. But I’m not the same girl I used to be. I’m well on my way to being a lead interior designer (in the next few years). I have a roof over my head (that only leaks when it rains). I have a car that runs (most of the time). I’m ready for anything life might throw at me. But when I’m assigned a new client for a renovation project, he’s the last person I expect to walk into the room. “I look forward to working together,” Guy 2.0 says. I don’t remember that rough, chiseled jawline. I don’t remember those mouth-watering, harder than granite muscles. And I certainly don’t remember his smile ever making my knees so wobbly. It seems I’ve forgotten everything about the Guy I loved to hate. But no matter how hard I try, I can’t forget the taste of his lips when we kissed. And he won’t let me. Guy Hater is a full-length standalone enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy. It’s light. It’s fun. And it will make you swoon through fits of giggles!
