GRUMPY X SUNSHINE + AGE GAP + FORCED PROXIMITY
He is the Beverly Hills surgeon who fled to Sunset Valley.
She is the teacher who believes in true love and happy endings.
And they are going to have to work very closely.
SAGE
I’m the kind of person who believes in soulmates, in happy endings, in the fact that true love really exists.
Until I meet Dominic Kane. And everything changes.
Gorgeous. Impossible. Completely emotionally closed off.
When I volunteer to help with his nephews, I do it because Emma and Ethan need affection, not a rigid structure. Because I see the pain in their eyes and I want to help.
I didn’t expect to have to see him constantly.
And I definitely didn’t expect this: how my pulse quickens every time he’s near. How I struggle to breathe when he’s beside me. How a simple brush of his hand makes me forget my own name.
Dominic is fourteen years older than me and has made it clear he doesn’t want complications in his life.
But I’ve never been good at following the rules.
Especially when it comes to the heart.
DOMINIC
I didn’t come to Sunset Valley looking for romance.
I came looking for stability for Ethan and Emma. A place to heal. A place to start over without complications.
And then Sage Wellington appears.
Young. Luminous. With a smile that lights up entire rooms and a way of treating my nephews that makes something I’ve been failing at for three years look easy.
I should keep my distance. Focus on the kids. Not complicate things.
But she’s in my house constantly. Laughing with Emma. Getting Ethan to open up. Turning my gray world into something full of color.
And I’m starting to notice things I shouldn’t. How she blushes when I look at her. How her laughter makes something in my chest loosen.
Sage is too young, too much of a dreamer, too good for someone like me.
But when she looks at me with those eyes full of hope...
I’m starting to think that maybe complications aren’t so bad.
And that falling in love with her is inevitable.
Some complications are worth it.
