Architect Briar Adler came to Beaumere, South Carolina to escape a life that stopped making sense.
What she found instead was Hargrave Manor.
And its very stubborn owner.
Wystan Hargrave has spent years protecting his family's historic coastal estate and keeping the world at arm's length. The last thing he wants is an outsider telling him what needs fixing. Especially not one who sees through him faster than anyone ever has.
Unfortunately for him, Briar is not afraid of difficult houses. Or complicated men.
As restoration begins, so does something neither of them expected. Between town square evenings, long renovation days, and a growing circle of people who begin to feel like home, the distance between them starts to disappear.
But Briar did not come to Beaumere planning to stay.
And Wystan never planned to let anyone close enough to leave a mark.
Perfect for readers who love:
• slow burn romance
• small coastal towns
• forced proximity
• grumpy meets sunshine energy
• found family
• restoration projects
• layered emotional healing
• character driven love stories
As a Manor of Fact is a warm, funny, slow build coastal romance about rebuilding old houses, rebuilding trust, and discovering where home really is.
