Synopsis

He's a tattooed, blue-eyed jerk who has no business being a single dad. He's also my next-door neighbor, and after negotiations, my grumpy employer for the summer.

I don't put up with cocky males normally and I certainly won't put up with that man making noise at all hours of the day and night while he builds his glamp-ground. I offer advice, but the stubborn fool just turns his tractor on to drown me out. He returns the favor by pushing my buttons and making me so angry I can't see straight. And I really want to be able to see his gorgeous body in those well-worn jeans and backward hat.

Amidst the verbal warfare, I discover he's hiding scars from a recent accident. I also find out his light eyes heat up to a smoldering icy gray when I give as good as I get. Makes me want to see just how far I can push him and what he'll do when he boils over.

Gannon's been dealt a rough hand in life, and when I find a way under that gruff—and stupidly handsome—exterior, I find that maybe he's not Grumpy the Bear as I nicknamed him, but instead just a teddy bear.

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Kayla on August 07, 2023

No grown-ass man is gonna say glamp-ground as much as this dude does 🤢 Also, I get so annoyed with romances when they have one fight and then one of them refuses to talk about it and just calls it quits. Grow up! Guess that's why dudes shouldn't date women ten years younger than them 🤷‍♀️......more
