FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE SPARE ROOM

ASSUMPTION 1: Every woman dreams of an epically grand, romantic proposal.
Amy Perry doesn't believe in fairy-tale romances. Smart, savvy and a little bit cynical, she's much happier keeping things casual. She thought her good-looking, wealthy boyfriend felt the same way. But here she is, 1,000 feet up in the air, watching him get down on one knee...

ASSUMPTION 2: Sexy lords only exist in Bridgerton.
As if things couldn't get worse, after a messy break-up Amy is forced to relocate to her hometown to take up a new job opportunity - and runs into the last person she ever wanted to see again. Sam Ainsworth. Son of the local lord. The bane of her existence. Her first love.

ASSUMPTION 3: Always trust your head, not your heart.
Everything Amy believed about Sam turned out to be right when he broke her heart all those years ago. She's not looking to revisit the past. But everywhere she turns, Sam's there - with his irresistible molten brown eyes, wry smile and easy charm. Soon, Amy finds herself wondering: what if, after all this time, she's been wrong all along...?

A simmering, small town enemies-to-lovers romance with big feels and lots of laughs from the bestselling author of Rachel Ryan's Resolutions. Perfect for fans of Beth O'Leary, Sophie Ranald and Portia MacIntosh.
