A billionaire hiding from his future. A café owner rebuilding her life. One small beach town is about to change everything. Max Bauer has a decision to agree to the marriage arrangement his father demands or finally choose a future for himself. The last thing he expects is to feel at home in Penrose Beach—or to fall for the guarded café owner who gives him a ride into town after his car breaks down. Avery Wells didn’t move to the beach looking for love. She came for a fresh start. But somewhere between apartment renovations, town events, and late-night conversations, Max starts feeling less like a temporary visitor…and more like home. There’s just one Max’s real life is still waiting for him in New York. And Avery already knows what it feels like to come second to someone else’s plans.
Author

Britney Mills was born in Utah but parts of her heart lie in Boston, Washington D.C. and Germany. Her love of writing began with the third grade book her teacher assigned her to write and she spent hours hidden behind her mother’s couch writing pages and pages about knights and castles. Most of her time consists of taking care of her young son and triplets but writing keeps her sane as she travels along on the adventures of characters to come. When she’s not mothering, writing or reading, she’s probably out playing a sport, going on a hike, or binge watching some kind of murder mystery show. She is a fan of chick flicks and adventure/action stories in books and movies, and can even get her cowboy husband to watch along with her.
