The Fix-Up Feud (Orchard Harbor Book 1)

About this book

The first rule of renovating is simple: don’t kiss your contractor. Unfortunately for Maddie Briar, she broke that golden rule before she even knew who he was. After a night of drinks and an undeniably electric connection with a handsome stranger, the morning light reveals a harsh reality: that stranger is Jake Winn, the grumpy foreman who is now in charge of the renovations for her new catering business. To make matters worse, the tension goes beyond the job site. Jake is the very man Maddie outbid for the commercial building she now owns, and to add insult to injury, he is also her new neighbor. Their professional partnership quickly descends into a high-stakes standoff as they clash over every detail of the project, their reputations and future successes hanging in the balance. As they navigate this enemies-to-lovers dynamic, the lingering memory of that impulsive kiss makes it impossible to ignore the chemistry crackling between them. Forced to work in close quarters, Maddie and Jake must decide if they can set aside their barbs and professional grudges to transform a building—and perhaps their own stubborn hearts—or if this renovation is destined for a total collapse.
