Falling out of a tree and landing at the feet of a sexy neighbor is not the meet-cute of corporate attorney Meghan Maye’s dreams. He’s too handsome, too flirty, too fun and too young. She could ignore those flaws, if she were looking for a man, but she’s not. Meghan’s contemplating a career switch that sounds crazy even to her and will upset her ambitious parents. Plus, there’s bad blood between their families. Then he brings up the mysterious, heirloom cookbook—Southern Love Spells—and issues a challenge. And Meghan, even bruised and embarrassed, can’t let that go unanswered. Firefighter Jackson Roberts wasn’t looking for trouble when he wandered onto a recently deceased neighbor’s property. He knows he’s not supposed to be there, but he’s housesitting for his folks, and he’s looking for answers to questions his family’s afraid to ask. As a first responder, he can hardly call 911 and walk away, but taking care of Meghan until she’s back on her feet will open a Pandora’s box. But Jackson rarely plays it safe, and he’s convinced Meghan’s worth the risk.
