The Heartbreaker

Dr. Sam Kirk was Lucki Stevenson’s childhood best friend…and her teenage heartbreak. Now he’s back in Harbor Falls, charmingly handsome, and living next door. Worse? He’s more irresistible than she remembers.

But Lucki learned her lesson years ago: Sam Kirk is trouble for her heart.

She won’t fall for the boy next door again. Not even if he’s all grown up and determined to win her back.

Lucki has enough on her plate—coaching moody teenagers, dodging an annoying coworker, and trying to ignore the town busybodies who notice everything. So when Sam starts showing signs that he wants more than friendship, she braces herself for disaster. After all, he broke her heart once. She won’t give him the chance to do it twice.

But Sam is a man who knows what he wants.

And what he wants—what he’s always wanted—is Lucki.

This time, he’s not giving up—not on her, not on them, and not on the future he should have fought for years ago. Between church shenanigans, chocolate milkshakes, BB-gun mishaps, and the interference of half the town, Sam launches a full-scale campaign to win Lucki’s heart once and for all.

But can he prove he’s not the heartbreaker she remembers?

A laugh out loud, slow-burn, second-chance romance about best friends turned lovers, small-town chaos, and embracing the love that was always meant to be.
