Dream Girl Drama

Chloe Clifford captured Sig Gauthier’s heart the moment he met her. Chloe is bright, funny, and the most beautiful woman Sig’s ever seen. Chloe falls quickly for Sig too. He’s coarse and calloused and kind, nothing like the young men her socialite mother has been setting her up with. Unfortunately, they are about to be stepsiblings, which means they can’t be together romantically. Instead, they try to stay friends, with Sig helping Chloe escape her privileged life to live independently in Boston. They think they’re doing a good job of hiding their feelings, but everyone around them—including the press—sees the deep emotional bond between them. The rumors about them jeopardize Sig’s hockey career and Chloe’s ambitions as a professional harpist, not to mention upending the lives of their soon-to-be-wed parents. This love-at-first-glance romance between a gruff cinnamon-roll hero and a naive dream girl is swoon-worthy. The tension between the characters is palpable, and readers will be on a knife’s edge waiting for it to break.
