Third Time's a Charm (Love in Lovington #2)

Sloan Davis has a strict no-relationship policy—and she likes it that way. After a messy first marriage destroyed her self-worth, she decided that flying solo was more than just a choice; it’s a whole lifestyle. She’s got a job she loves, friends she can count on, and a dream that’s about to become opening her own cat rescue, The Catcade. Who needs a man?

But life laughs at people’s plans.

On a routine trip to the bookstore, Sloan accidentally crashes into Nate Jennings. He checks all the boxes. Tall, rugged, and dangerously charming. If only she was still the kind of girl who believed in happily-ever-afters. Nate should be just another handsome stranger she’ll never see again, but when her mischievous cat decides to make a run for it, he shows up, ready to help. Armed with patience, wit, and a mutual appreciation for feline friends, Nate won’t stop until they find Piper.

During their daily searches, Nate picks away at Sloan’s iron-clad walls. Their friendship is warm, easy, flirty—and with each passing day, resisting Nate becomes harder and harder.

Sloan is fiercely independent and refuses to reject the philosophy that helped her piece herself back together, but her feelings for Nate are undeniable. As she struggles to secure funding for her cat shelter, Sloan realizes she might have to take a leap of faith—not just for The Catcade, but for her own happiness. Can she open her heart to the possibility of a new love and a second chance? Or will she miss out on a man who might just be impossible to resist?

Because some dreams are meant to be shared, and some love stories start with the perfect fall—literally.
