Angol
IVY
I've built an entire career on helping people fall in love.
Everyone in Sugarpine Lake knows me as the woman who can spot soulmates from a mile away, plan the perfect date, and convince even the biggest cynics to believe in happily ever afters.
After one disastrous event threatens everything I've worked for, I'm left trying to rebuild my business-and my confidence-from the ground up. The last person I expect to end up by my side is Callum Brandt. He's practical, stubborn, frustratingly handsome, and about as romantic as a tax return.
Somehow, working together turns into shared coffees, late nights, and conversations that leave me wondering if maybe love isn't something you can plan after all.
Because the one person I never intended to match...
Might just be my own.
CALLUM
I didn't come back to Sugarpine Lake looking for love.
I came home because my family needed me. Between helping my aunt through the hardest season of her life and trying to keep everything else from falling apart, I don't have time for romance-or for the town's relentlessly optimistic matchmaker.
Ivy Caldwell believes everyone deserves a happily ever after.
I believe people make their own choices.
So why is it that every time we're together, she makes me question everything I thought I knew?
The more time we spend rebuilding her dream, the harder it becomes to ignore the way she makes this town feel like home again. She's organized where I'm simple, hopeful where I'm realistic, and somehow she sees the best in me long before I do.
Falling for Ivy was never part of the plan.
Good thing the best things in life don't care about my plans.
