description: Life will occasionally demand your bravery. It will also require your foolishness.If you're in the mood for a romantic tale with a quirky heroine, a sweetheart of an anti-hero, and a foul-mouthed parrot playing the part of cupid... you're going to love this story.Linc Hawker has retired from the Navy and put his emotional and spiritual house in order. He's ready to find the last piece of his puzzle and thinks he just might've when he meets Haven's bookstore owner... unless the beautiful book lady turns out to be the tornado that upends his life. Either way, it's bound to be a good time.Lucy Bennett barely survived the crash and burn of her last relationship and has decided to reset her life. She's vowed to forgo shenanigans, men, and anything else that skates the edge of excitement, which regrettably will now have to include the inked-up anti-prince that just arrived in town. Digging deep into her lost well of resistance, she does everything she can to ignore his lethal good looks, enormous heart, and well-developed sense of chivalry.And, yes, that works out about as well as you imagine.See what happens when a bad boy and a book lady can't resist temptation.The road to love has a few twists and turns, but that doesn't make this opposites-attract tale any less delicious. In fact, it makes it darn right addictive!
