Finding Love in Ivy Falls

What if choosing love means breaking a family?

Tessa is struggling to run her mother’s beloved bookstore and the business is failing. At least she has her friend, and accidental heartthrob, Manny to support her. As single parents they understand each other, and their friendship is too important for Tessa to give in to the chemistry brewing between them.

With the sudden success of his home renovation show, Manny is shocked to discover just how much the internet knows about him. While he navigates his new and strange life, his feelings only grow for Tessa as he helps build a new coffee bar for the bookstore.

But when Tessa’s soon-to-be ex-husband returns to Ivy Falls, she must make a choice: should she follow her heart, or does she owe it to her girls to fix their family?
