If the sexy-as-sin best man would quit being such a tempting distraction. When it comes to marriage, my motto has always been, just say no. And for good reason. Plenty of them, in fact. So how the hell did I wind up as the bride’s style consultant—and maid of honor, by the way—in Silicon Valley's biggest wedding of the season? Underneath my Grumpy Gus mask, I’m just a sucker for a friend in need. But it doesn’t mean I’m going soft. I’m definitely not about to fall for the best man’s tousled, beachy hotness. .. or those ocean-blue eyes that look right past my prickly exterior to my marshmallow center. With the bride refusing to see the signs of the groom’s all too familiar shady behavior, it’s up to me to save my friend from making the same mistake I nearly did. Even if it takes some of my trademark tough love. That means a hard pass on sexy times with the best man. Right? ★★★★★ "So easy to read but written with such originality.

All she wants for the holidays every year is to wake up in January when they’re over. This year, she’ll be spending winter break in Switzerland. Where a chiseled Alpine guide just might be the one to melt the ice around her grinchy heart…if she’ll let him. December is my time to get away, get the hell outta town, escape the endless reminders of the holidays and what they used to mean to me... moreAll she wants for the holidays every year is to wake up in January when they’re over. This year, she’ll be spending winter break in Switzerland. Where a chiseled Alpine guide just might be the one to melt the ice around her grinchy heart…if she’ll let him. December is my time to get away, get the hell outta town, escape the endless reminders of the holidays and what they used to mean to me. Being a travel writer, chasing one extreme adventure to the next, provides plenty of opportunities to do just that. Until my new assignment—one that could catapult my career to the next level—sends me to the one place I’ve avoided my entire adult life. Switzerland. Nothing against the land of chocolate and cheese. In fact, maybe this trip won’t be so bad…especially when the guide for my ice climbing and heliskiing tour group turns out to be a steely-eyed, ruggedly appealing mountain man. Er, mountaineer. Too bad he’d rather offer me safety lectures than, well, something a thousand times more satisfying for us both. Getting him to chill out and me to rein in my reckless side is gonna take a Holiday Miracle. **Note: Winter Break Away is Book 2 in the series, A Season’s Detour.

A perfectly planned spring break in Scotland for a list-loving introvert. Except for the tag-along ex-boyfriend, the tourist-hating caretaker who's as infuriating as he is intriguing, and the major career decision hanging over her head. Time to rewrite the itinerary. On the surface, I'm the epitome of an accomplished academic, a woman who has her life mapped out in bullet points – tenure, marriage, family. But lately, there's a restlessness inside me, a mess of doubts about the path I'm on... moreA perfectly planned spring break in Scotland for a list-loving introvert. Except for the tag-along ex-boyfriend, the tourist-hating caretaker who's as infuriating as he is intriguing, and the major career decision hanging over her head. Time to rewrite the itinerary. On the surface, I'm the epitome of an accomplished academic, a woman who has her life mapped out in bullet points – tenure, marriage, family. But lately, there's a restlessness inside me, a mess of doubts about the path I'm on. The Scottish getaway I've always dreamed of was supposed to be a chance to leap out of my comfort zone, unearth my spontaneous side—I’m sure it’s buried under a pile of research papers somewhere—and determine if there's a future with my (currently ex-) boyfriend, otherwise known as Professor Wishy Washy by my five opinionated besties. Instead, I find myself in a remote Highland cottage that's more fixer-upper than fairy tale, with an ex who's more ghost than partner, and a seemingly inept handyman whose affected brogue and laid-back lifestyle challenge every certainty and carefully crafted plan I’ve always followed. Will the unexpectedly endearing Laird MacBawbag—my private name for the grumpy Scot—be the one to help me rewrite my carefully scripted life? Or will my need for safety and structure close the book on an adventure that could redefine everything I thought I wanted? ** Spring Breaking is Book 6 in the series, A Season’s Detour.
