She’s sunshine with three kids and a dream. He’s a grumpy silver fox with a hammer and no intention of falling in love.

Amber:
When the health inspector shut down the diner I manage, I lost more than my paycheck. Suddenly, I’m standing in the wreckage of the life I’d been drifting through, with three hungry kids, a stack of my grandma’s recipes, and no backup plan.

I never planned to chase my own dream—but maybe I should. And apparently, Brett Walker thinks so too. He’s a gruff contractor, ex-military, and the last man I expected to offer help. His business proposal could change everything. The catch? We’ll be working side-by-side, day after day, and my sunny outlook seems to clash with his stormy moods…even as something warmer starts to take root between us.

Brett:
I came to Twin Waves to renovate a few properties, keep my head down, and move on. That’s what I do—fix things, then walk away.

But Amber’s not just another project. She’s stubborn, strong, and more capable than she realizes. And the more time I spend with her—and her kids—the harder it is to imagine leaving when the work is done.

She’s sunshine with a side of sass. He’s grump with a hammer. Together, they might just build something worth keeping.
