There’s a fine line between confidence and cockiness. Henry Aron, the frustratingly attractive contractor renovating my grandmother’s farmhouse, has been walking it since the day we met.

After clawing my way out of a toxic marriage, I’ve got no time for another man who thinks he knows better. But I need him. This renovation is the last promise I made to my grandmother—the woman who loved me unconditionally. And the more time I spend with Henry, the more I see beyond the sarcasm. He’s kind. Steady. A devoted single dad. And, it turns out, just as emotionally guarded as I am. So, we call a truce and agree to be friends. The problem is the chemistry between us doesn't feel like friendship. But one kiss to get it out of our systems turns into one night, and it’s not enough. Suddenly we’re adding many benefits and a few rules:. ➤ Monogamous. ➤ No feelings. ➤ Definitely no falling in love. Easy enough… until it isn’t. Because every night together brings us closer. Every look, every touch, chips away at the walls we swore would protect us. This was supposed to be simple. No strings. No mess. But if we don’t rewrite the rules, we could lose the one thing that finally feels real. When We Were More. is the first book in the Aron Falls small-town romance series: smart, strong heroines with heart and sexy, swoon worthy heroes. less
