The Love Fixers — A.R. Casella

Claire: A few hours after losing my job, I get a call from a stranger who claims I've inherited property from my father. I assume it's a scam, because my dad is alive. Turns out my mother is the liar. I board a flight to my bio-dad's hometown, but the turbulence is so bad I worry we won't make it. Declan, the hot, tattooed hunk next to me, is terrified too. When the plane freefalls for half a second, he kisses me with the passion of a man who thinks he's about to die. He seems to regret it immediately—and we both regret it when we discover he's my new neighbor. To make matters worse, it turns out my bio-dad's cabin is only half mine. The rest belongs to a half-sister I didn't know I had. If I weren't unemployed and broke, I'd leave, but this crappy half-a-house is my only possession. So I stay in the hopes that I can convince her to sell. Unfortunately, she seems intent on setting me up with Declan, and her matchmaking tactics are extreme. Declan: I came to the mountains to hide and be alone, and now I'm never alone. Every time I turn a corner, I run into Claire. She's tempting, but I know better than to wrap her up in my trouble—or get wrapped up in hers. Contains mature themes.
