Brewing Up a Bad Boy: A Spicy Small-Town Second-Chance Romance

Tea shop owner Poppy Kitchener thought she had left her youthful mistakes—and her ex-husband—in the past as she started over in Birch Lake, ME, with her two best friends. When her ex shows up—even more handsome and charming than ever, unfortunately—she soon realizes that her feelings for him might not be as long buried as she’d hoped. Alistair Miller needs Poppy to pretend to still be married to him for one last family event and promises her a life-changing business deal with his family’s company, Lancaster-Spencer Tea Makers, in exchange for her cooperation. But Ali’s current status with the company is complicated, and the fact that he hasn’t gotten over his divorce isn’t helping his current situation either. Can he show Poppy that he’s not the same man who let her down years ago, or are they destined to brew up nothing but disaster together?
