Batter of Wits — Karla Sorensen

Life lessons from Grace Buchanan: If you're going to fall in love with the town golden boy, make sure he's single first.

Don't worry, when Grace moves into town from LA, she doesn't kick off Green Valley's greatest love triangle, but she does make quite an entrance. When her car breaks down just inside the city limits, the knight in shining pickup truck is Tucker Haywood -- tall, handsome, full of southern charm, and a giant pain in Grace's butt.

She's not even sure why he bugs her so much, he just does. In fact, she can't stop thinking about why he's so irritating, until she realizes that she just plain can't stop thinking about him.

Tucker can't stop thinking about Grace either, because the moment her combat-boot clad feet prop up on the dashboard of his truck, she's like a blonde bombshell wrecking ball in his perfectly constructed life.

Turns out the bad girl and the golden boy have a lot more in common than they think, and that delicious discovery will rock Green Valley in a way that no one saw coming.
