Part of Series

Two rivals. One snowstorm. An unexpected spark. Arabella Returning to Bluefern to care for my father wasn’t part of my plan. But here I am, doing my best as the town’s new vet and trying to avoid Rafferty Moon, the one person who knows exactly how to get under my skin. We were high school rivals through and through, constantly competing to be the best. Now he’s the town doctor, and it feels like no time has passed—as if the years haven’t erased the tension that crackles every time we’re in the same room. But when a snowstorm traps us together, I start to see a different side of him, one that I can’t ignore. Maybe he’s not just my old rival; maybe there’s more to him than I ever allowed myself to see. Rafferty Arabella Collins. The name alone still stirs something up inside me, something sharp and undeniable. High school was a battlefield, and she was my biggest competition. Now she’s back, all fire and determination, caring for her father and running her vet practice, and somehow, we’re right back to butting heads. But as we’re forced together by circumstances neither of us can control, I begin to wonder if there’s more to her than I thought—more than the smart, ambitious girl I used to try to outdo. I start to see her warmth, her resilience, and suddenly, I want more than just a fleeting spark. Clashing Moon by Tess Thompson, USA Today Bestselling Author, is a heartwarming story about letting go of old rivalries to discover a love worth fighting for. Perfect for fans of snowbound small-town romance, enemies-to-lovers, and second chances wrapped in the warmth of home.

Tess Thompson Romance...hometowns and heartstrings. Tess Thompson is the USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author of contemporary and historical Romantic Women’s Fiction with nearly 40 published titles. When asked to describe her books, she could never figure out what to say that would perfectly sum them up until she landed on, Hometowns and Heartstrings. She’s married to her prince, Best Husband Ever, and is the mother of their blended family of four kids and five cats. Best Husband Ever is seventeen months younger, which qualifies Tess as a Cougar, a title she wears proudly. Her Bonus Sons are young adults with pretty hair and big brains like their dad. Daughters, better known as Princess One and Two, are teenagers who make their mama proud because they’re kind. They’re also smart, but a mother shouldn’t brag. Tess loves lazy afternoons watching football, hanging out on the back patio with Best Husband Ever, reading in bed, binge-watching television series, red wine, strong coffee and walks on crisp autumn days. She laughs a little too loudly, never knows what to make for dinner, looks ridiculous kickboxing in an attempt to combat her muffin top, and always complains about the rain even though she chose to live in Seattle. She’s proud to have grown up in a small town like the ones in her novels. After graduating from the University of Southern California Drama School, she had hopes of becoming an actress but was called instead to writing fiction. She’s grateful to spend most days in her office matchmaking her characters while her favorite cat Mittens (shhh…don’t tell the others) sleeps on the desk. She adores hearing from readers, so don’t hesitate to say hello or sign up for her newsletter: http://tesswrites.com/. You’ll receive an ebook copy of her novella, The Santa Trial, for your efforts. Much to her father’s horror, you can find her everywhere on social media. BookBub: http://bit.ly/2esOcrn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorTessTh...
