I sell books. Not pieces of my town.
Then Henry Blackwood walks into Willow Creek looking like money, power, and very bad decisions in a tailored suit.
My pulse stutters.
My temper sparks.
My body absolutely betrays me.
He’s a billionaire developer with plans to change everything.
I’m the bookstore owner standing in his way.
And every time we’re in the same room, it feels less like a disagreement… and more like foreplay with legal documents.
He thinks Willow Creek is a project.
I think he’s the kind of man who destroys beautiful things and calls it progress.
But Henry isn’t just threatening my town.
He’s getting too close to my secrets.
Because I’m not only Madeline Carter, small-town bookseller.
I’m also M.C. Rivers, the anonymous author no one here is supposed to know exists.
If he finds out, I could lose everything.
My peace.
My privacy.
The life I built with my own two hands.
And the worst part?
The more he pushes, the more I want him.
He’s rich. He’s ruthless. He looks at me like I’m the one thing he can’t buy.
And if I’m not careful, I might let the wrong Blackwood rewrite my ending.
