Bookstore owner Aubrey Barnes likes his quiet, orderly London life, thank you very much. His shop may be struggling, his only employee is a menace, and his plumbing is one creaky pipe away from disaster, but he can handle it. Maybe.

She was here, my mother, and now she's lying on the floor, blood pooling around her dead form. Surprisingly, that's not our top concern right now. Our main priority is the bomb strapped to her that's still flashing and armed. I know I said I liked explosives, but it doesn't mean I want to go out that way.

I grew up overnight, spending each day focused on how to be the leader, the confidant, the father figure, and everything in between. They're all moving on and starting their own lives, but I don't know what's left for me. It would be nice to connect with someone else. Who else could possibly understand the headspace I’m in?

Josephine Bowen has the opportunity to travel to Key West for a work trip with Jack Lancaster, her grumpy and hard to figure out colleague. He frowns a lot, but he's also kind. Thoughtful. Considerate and an all-around good guy. When her toxic ex-boyfriend arrives at the same conference, Jack doesn't hesitate to jump in as her current love interest.

What I didn't plan on was running right into Levi the Lumberjack himself.

Yes. Yes, I do have a crush on Isaac, my YouTube-famous boss. Do I ever talk to him? Absolutely not. Crippling social anxiety can do that. But I'm nothing if not tenacious. Since straight up talking to him is way too hard, I've devised a plan. Online, I have social skills I'd never dream of having in person. I'm possibly even cool.
