Stuck With My Grumpy Protector
(2026)(A book in the Anchored Hearts of Tidehaven series)
A novel by Violet McBride
The grumpy man I can’t stand just rescued me.
Now I’m stranded with himand starting to wish he’d kiss me.
For three years, I’ve kept my bookshop running and my broken heart firmly off-limits.
Caleb Ward apparently missed the memo.
Tidehaven’s infuriating emergency coordinator keeps showing up with storm warnings, evacuation orders, and opinions I never asked for.
Then a hurricane hits, and the only man I want to avoid becomes the one I can’t get away from.
One tiny shelter. One long night. Far too little space between us.
Beneath his gruff orders is a tenderness I never saw coming. And when he pulls me into his arms, I want something I thought I’d buried with my husband.
A future.
Until I discover the promise my husband asked Caleb to make.
A sweet, closed-door coastal romance featuring enemies to lovers, forced proximity, a protective grump, a widowed bookshop owner, and a happily ever after.
Genre: Romance
