Three reasons I shouldn't fall for the s*xy hardware store owner next 1. He's a protective, growly Daddy, who makes my knees weak every time he calls me "baby girl" 2. I'm just here to flip my late father's Victorian house, not find my forever Daddy 3. My track record with relationships is as messy as my renovation skills (and by the way, I just flooded the laundry room) I didn't expect coming home to Small Falls would awaken my inner Little. But one burst pipe and a rescue from Marcus Wilkins later, I'm discovering desires I never knew I had. Between his strong hands showing me how to use power tools and his deep voice reading me bedtime stories, I'm falling hard and fast. Maybe it's just the renovation fumes making me dizzy. Or maybe it's the way he disciplines me when I've been naughty, then holds me like I'm a princess. But Daddies and Littles don't mix with house flipping and city life. And with both our hearts carrying old scars, I'll have to should I run back to the city, or risk everything to be his good girl forever? A steamy, emotional romance featuring home renovation mishaps, bedtime stories, and two hearts discovering that sometimes love needs a second coat. The characters in this novel are consenting adults.
