Showing up when she least expects him

Kara Klein comes to the café to work. She loves the place, appreciates the other regulars, could live on Nina’s excellent coffee. With her earbuds in and her papers spread out before her, Kara settles in to get things done whenever she visits the café. No time for conversation. No time for nonsense.

Certainly no time for the attractive man with almost hazel eyes who sits across from her and earnestly leaves her alone.

With things in her career taking priority, Kara doesn’t have time for a crush. Or getting her heart broken.

Too bad her heart has other priorities.

And if you'd like to try another of my contemporary romances, check out DESIGNED FOR YOU, a perfect beach read for the coming summer (or to remind you of summer if you're entering winter in the southern hemisphere!)
