She’s sunshine and optimism. He’s grumpy and guarded. Can they find love on Palmar Island this Thanksgiving? Tamsin Holt is looking forward to a peaceful getaway on Palmar Island and a chance to run in the annual Turkey Trot. But when her car breaks down on the bridge, those plans hit a speed bump. Enter Griffin Nash—the island’s rugged mechanic with a surly attitude and a past he’d rather forget. Griffin came to Palmar Island for solitude, not romance. After his brother’s betrayal shattered his trust, he kept to himself, fixing cars and steering clear of anything resembling love. The last thing he expects is to be roped into helping a stranded woman with an infectious smile and enough cheer to light up the whole island. When local matchmaker Miss Doris convinces Tamsin and Griffin to pitch in for the community’s Thanksgiving meal, sparks fly—both the frustrating and romantic kind. As they prepare for the holiday festivities, Tamsin’s warmth starts to break down Griffin’s walls, while Griffin’s gruff charm leaves Tamsin questioning her own guarded heart. But with Thanksgiving fast approaching, can Tamsin convince Griffin that opening up to love is worth the risk? Or will his past leave him stuck in the grump zone for good? Get ready for a heartwarming, small-town romance filled with laughter, second chances, and the magic of the holidays. Grateful For The Grump will leave you smiling long after the last page.
