Love at First Pint (Spirit of Hops #2)
J.E. Joyce
Sarah
Spending the holidays alone is a special kind of loneliness, but who would have guessed a little Christmas road trip would lead to a man ready and willing to bring me into his crazy… until I ran in the other direction. Running away and being alone on Christmas was never the plan, but it gave me a chance at a fresh start, a new purpose. What I didn’t expect? Handwritten letters from the quiet, grumpy mechanic and metal artist I left behind. Donnie Larson. A Viking with a heart of gold. He’s everything I never knew I wanted—and everything I’m scared to lose.
Donnie
My life was simple—fixing cars by day and crafting metal sculptures by night. Then Sarah blew into town with her over-the-top energy and unstoppable smile, turning my world upside down. She appreciates my art for what it is and is the only woman who’s ever made me want more. I want her to stay; I need her to come to me, but… I can’t get her off my mind, so I let my letters speak for me, hoping she’ll come back to me. After all, you can’t strong-arm love… can you?
What happens when a big-city girl finds a home in a small-town artist’s heart? Sparks, laughs, and enough romance to melt even the iciest of Minnesota winters.
