My Sweet Adversary: A Clean Small Town Romance

He stole my father, but he won’t steal my heart.

After a fourteen-year absence, the man who took my rightful place in my father’s heart is back in town.

Discovering he’s my landlord puts me on edge.

Discovering he has plans to move in reignites a deep-seated resentment.

I’m not prepared to come face to face with my unwelcome housemate.

The boy I remember is now a man with broad shoulders, expressive hazel eyes, and a peace offering of roses.

Beneath the tension of our difficult reunion lies an undeniable attraction. A magnetic pull stirring up emotions neither of us can ignore.

He’s the son my father never had, and forgiveness seems impossible.

I resist, he persists—wanting to protect what's left of us.

When he gets close and whispers in my ear, my lips can’t form a single word in response, but I’m certain my pounding heart has plenty to say.
