My Grumpy Mechanic Next Door

Jade Harrington arrives in Cedarbrook with a dead marriage, a dead car, and just enough money to rent the tiniest house on the block.

What she does not need is a shared driveway with Owen Barrett.

Owen is a gruff mechanic, a single dad, and the kind of man who speaks in short sentences and fixes everything except the parts of his life that actually hurt. His teenage daughter, Riley, has no interest in another woman drifting through their orbit, and Owen is even less interested in wanting his newly divorced next-door neighbor as much as he does.

But Cedarbrook is a small town, and "next door" starts to feel dangerously close.

First it's emergency car repairs and late-night porch talks. Then it's Riley's walls cracking, Jade's photography business finally starting to breathe again, and one argument in the dark that ends with Owen kissing her like he's done pretending he doesn't think about it. By the time a storm traps them in his garage under a single work lamp, the chemistry between them is way past undeniable.

She was supposed to be temporary. He was supposed to stay careful.

Now one grumpy mechanic, one struggling photographer, and one sharp-eyed teenage girl are about to find out whether a shared driveway can become a shared life.
