description: Im not sure which is worse--the lawyer handling my grandmothers estate or the attack pelican living on the screened-in porch. Just kidding--Ill take the pelican any day.After graduation I thought Id be off to grad school doing research on my favorite poet. Instead Im renovating my late grandmothers home and posting about the process on Instagram. Talk about a detour But here I am. Turning Grans beach house into a bed and breakfast--a process that would be a lot easier if I didnt have to deal with the grumpy lawyer living next door. It doesnt help that the night Jake and I met I got a little tipsy and he had to carry me back to my hotel.But the longer I stay on Oakley Island the more I feel a connection to my childhood and to my grandmother. This isnt the life I dreamed of but dreams can change. Especially when new dreams include a future with Jake. On the outside he might be pricklier than a puffer fish but I catch glimpses of a delicious cinnamon roll center.Did I mention the tattoos he hides underneath those crisp button-down shirts? Yowza.When Im suddenly presented with the academic opportunity of my dreams (former dreams?) my picturesque life on Oakley starts to unravel.A part of me wants to stay. If only a certain tattooed grump didnt seem so determined to send me away Eloise and The Grump Next Door is a grumpy sunshine closed door romantic comedy. The Oakley Island Romcom series follows three very different sisters as they renovate the house they inherited and find love on the island along the way. Each book will have sizzling chemistry but no spice.
