She's chasing a second chance. He's hiding from the past. Neither expected to find something that felt like home.

Emma Goode's career is on the line. With a looming deadline and a stalled second cookbook, she flees to a weather-worn cottage in Maine—armed with nothing but sass, a rusted-out Honda named Dolores, and enough comfort food recipes to feed her feelings for weeks.

Knox Mitchell likes his life quiet, his coffee black, and his neighbors nonexistent. After leaving the Navy, he took the lighthouse keeper job for one reason: solitude. But when his new neighbor crash-lands into town—blasting pop music and setting off smoke alarms at midnight—his quiet life is officially over. She talks to her kitchen appliances and shows up at his door with warm biscuits and zero boundaries.

The way to his heart might actually be through his stomach. Not that he's admitting it.

She's chaos in an apron. He's order in flannel. And the town? Shipping them—
hard. Like, already planning their wedding, hard.

Between flying sparks, unsolicited casseroles, and a town hell-bent on matchmaking, Emma and Knox will either kill each other... or fall in love by the Fourth of July.

Perfect for fans of grumpy x sunshine, small-town meddling, sizzling banter, and cinnamon roll heroes in denial, THE LIGHTHOUSE LOOPHOLE is a steamy romance about second chances, unexpected connections, and the kind of love that sneaks up on you—one baked good at a time.
