About this book
Nomi Wyeth has a singular mission: to open a boutique cannabis dispensary in the quaint town of Sparrow Nook, New Jersey. For Nomi, who relies on cannabis to manage her Crohn’s disease, this business is a labor of love and a beacon of relief for her community. However, her dreams hit a massive roadblock in the form of Dr. Julian D’Angelo. The town’s former salutatorian and Nomi’s high school nemesis, Julian returns home with a chip on his shoulder and a staunch, moralistic vendetta against the very product Nomi intends to sell. The tension ignites when an unexpected medical mishap forces Nomi onto Julian’s exam table. Despite their mutual disdain, the physical attraction is impossible to ignore. What follows is a classic enemies-to-lovers battle, as the pair clashes in public debates and local fundraisers. Julian is convinced Nomi is running an "amoral bordello," while Nomi views him as a judgmental obstacle to her success. As they trade barbs and compete for the soul of Sparrow Nook, the line between their rivalry and their growing desire begins to blur. Will they continue their war of attrition, or will they finally admit that their hearts are changing faster than their minds?
