Small-town romance

Witty and meddling side characters

Ingie Pulaski doesn’t believe in happily-ever-after anymore.

Left at the altar, she’s convinced love, marriage, and family aren’t in the cards for her. Haunted by her mother’s cutting words—that she’s an ugly duckling destined to end up alone—Ingie pours herself into running her father’s legacy, the Three Rivers Fly Shop and Boat Repair.

Two years later, Ian Callahan, her brother’s best friend and her secret teenage crush, returns to their small town. Certain Ian will never notice the swan she’s become, Ingie shields her heart by insisting on a friends-with-benefits relationship. After all, who needs love when she has her work, a cantankerous one-eyed cat, and the ever-meddling Trench Coat Brigade—a quirky group of seniors with a knack for matchmaking and solving mysteries?

Ian Callahan is done with big-city life. After a failed relationship and the emotional toll of his job as an arson investigator, he’s come home to settle down. And there’s only one woman he wants by his side—Ingie. She’s bold, brilliant, and beautiful—everything he’s ever wanted. But convincing her they’re meant to be is no easy task, especially when she’s determined to keep things casual.

When a local building is set ablaze and a body is found, Ian’s firefighter instincts kick in. Keeping tabs on the Trench Coat Brigade becomes part of the investigation, giving him the perfect excuse to spend more time with Ingie. As danger looms, Ian makes it his mission to show her that their connection is more than just physical—it’s forever.

Ingie must decide if she’s willing to face her deepest fear—abandonment—or risk losing the one man who loves her exactly as she is.
