Publisher's Synopsis
She has a failing business, a meddling grandmother, and no time for love. Does a handsome local reporter from her past have what it takes to change her mind?
Ophelia McCarthy and Scott Latimer were perfect strangers when they barely survived a deadly Texas tornado. Seven years later, a chance meeting in New Orleans reunites them, but with her late grandfather's antique shop struggling to stay afloat, romance is the last thing on her mind.
Scott is a new reporter for the New Orleans paper and needs a great story to start out with a bang. And an ongoing feature following Ophelia's efforts to save her shop seems like a great way to prove himself to both the paper and to her. He gets to show off his skills to his new boss, she gets free publicity, and they get to spend a lot of time together. Score.
Unfortunately for Scott, he and Ophelia's shared traumatic past keeps her completely closed off to anything more than friendship with him. He knows it won't be easy to convince the woman he believes is his soulmate to let him out of the friendzone, but that doesn't mean he isn't going to try.
Fans of Susan Mallery, Robyn Carr, Jill Shalvis, Debbie Macomber, and Carolyn Brown will fall in love with this heartwarming emotional page turner with a twist.
