A stressed-out, twice-divorced romance writer and single mother looking for a fresh start, that's who. Despite what my besties say about my three-year dry spell, I'm \u003ci\u003enot\u003c\/i\u003e looking for a man. Or drama. Or sex. I've got enough on my plate with writer's block and a daughter who refuses to grow up. \u003ci\u003eCommunity.\u003c\/i\u003e That's what I need. Unfortunately, it seems the universe has other ideas. Either Chatemup, Massachusetts, has a serious shortage of single women, or I've become a hot mess magnet for the male species.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt least I've found one funny, good-hearted friend: fish peddler Declan Miller, my brainstorming adventure buddy who stirs my creative juices. I'm his Writer Girl. He's my Dimple Dude. Just scruffy, granite-chested, deep-voiced, ex-military brawn who happens to be--\u003ci\u003eoh, Nicole, what are you doing to yourself?\u003c\/i\u003e--stoking a long-neglected fire without even trying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA self-confessed hot mess, divorced single dad Declan is too old for relationship games. Not interested. \u003ci\u003eSame here.\u003c\/i\u003e So why do I keep thinking about him? \u003ci\u003ePreferably naked.\u003c\/i\u003e Because I'm a hot mess, too? At least he's inspiring me to write. If only real life were like one of my novels. At least then I'd have a better idea of how this was going to end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Montlake\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781662507939\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 364","brand":"Melissa Foster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43096265851061,"sku":"9781662507939","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_efa17a42-f788-402d-8c58-520ddf8cfdfb.jpg?v=1692804568","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/hot-mess-summer-9781662507939","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
