Sometimes Love is a Sweet Surprise
Zach is determined to get out of Lillet, Maryland if it's the last thing he does.
After being forced to move back home after graduating without a job, Zach Roberts just wants to spend the summer earning some money while trying to find a gig in New York City so he can get away from the quiet town where nothing seems to happen. But when his careful plans get shredded to bits, he needs to find something that will get his overbearing father off his back.
Enter Belle Thomas, the new girl in town who nags him with her overly optimistic presence, who happens to need an assistant to help with her online stationery shop. Zach has no desire to spend all that time with her or her furry companion, Appa, but he's desperate and even after a less-than-stellar first impression, she's willing to give him a chance.
But the more time they spend together packing orders, going on picnics, and roaming bookstores, the more Zach wants to stay in Lillet and be with Belle. But staying was never part of the plan and Zach has to wonder if this is just a summer fling or something real.
The Belle of Linley Cottage is a standalone new adult small-town romance in the Love in Lillet series. Each book follows a couple's journey to love, and they will return in subsequent books. This book is intended for an 18+ audience.
