Gone South by Jess Whitecroft
"Is this love? Or is it just a trauma-bonded hookup because we accidentally went on an inept crime spree together?"Meet Holly Grant and Marco Pugliese, two people having their own versions of a very bad day. He's a mechanic whose work, home, and family are about to get swept away on a tide of neighborhood gentrification, while frustrated architect Holly has just caught her father cheating on her mom. Again.There's an instant attraction. Tattoed biker Marco looks like he walked out of one of Holly's bad boy fantasies, while he thinks she's a hot little rich girl looking to work out some daddy issues.And they're both only half wrong.After a steamy hookup, Marco wakes up to a backhoe destroying his favorite strip club and discovers he just spent a wild night on a pool table with the daughter of the man who keeps trying to demolish his entire neighbourhood. And that the backhoe isn't the only engine of destruction he has to worry about.When Marco tells Holly's father he plans to kidnap her, Holly's dad doesn't take it seriously. Holly, on the other hand, does. Determined to call her old man's bluff, she tells Marco he's going to kidnap her or else, launching them on a fake criminal enterprise that rapidly escalates into ransom notes, terrifying pedicures, and violence against soft-furnishings. Before the first forty-eight hours are over, Marco realizes that even a bad boy biker has no chance of keeping pace with a good girl who has finally had enough.
