Must Have Been Love

From million-copy bestseller Carrie Elks comes an all-new small-town romance featuring a grumpy single dad, fiery enemies-to-lovers tension, and a happily-ever-after worth fighting for. Inheriting a rundown bar from the father who abandoned me should be my chance to start over. Instead, it puts me directly in the path of Hudson Fitzgerald-single dad, small town royalty, and the most insufferable man I've ever met. He's rich, broody, and way too good-looking for my peace of mind. Oh, and he wants me gone. But I didn't come here just to tuck my tail and run away. I came to prove I'm not the hot mess everyone thinks I am. Even if that means going head-to-head with Hudson every single day. He thinks I'm chaos in a crop top. I think he's a control freak with a stick where the sun doesn't shine. But beneath all that tension is something else. Something electric. And when he kisses me? Let's just say, for a man who claims he doesn't do messy, he sure knows how to make a mess of me. I was only supposed to be here long enough to fix up my bar. I never meant to fall for the man who runs this place like he owns it. But in a small town like this, love has a way of sneaking up on you.
