In this lighthearted romance filled with small-town humor and high jinks, an unsuspecting real estate agent becomes the wildest dream come true for all the single moms—except the one he wants.

They’re coworkers, friends, and confidants, but Peter Marshal has always pined for a little something more with Noelle Walters. As a widow and a single mom, Noelle prefers to play it safe, and falling for Peter was never part of the plan.

Then again, neither of their plans accounted for the well-meaning but meddling actions of Peter’s sister, who offers him up as their town’s most eligible bachelor in the local moms’ Facebook group. He’s none the wiser about the source of this sudden surge in attention, but he only has eyes for Noelle. And from where she’s standing on the sidelines of Peter’s popularity, it’s getting harder to pretend that she doesn’t see what everyone else sees in her best friend.

With all eyes on them, will Peter and Noelle finally see beyond the hurdles to the happily ever after that’s been there all along?

 

 

Excerpt:

Peter grinned again, and the dimple in his right cheek peeked out. It was the same expression he wore on the bus stop advertisement in front of the library, the picture that made him look like Tom Cruise.

Not that Noelle thought Peter looked like Tom Cruise. In fact, she actively focused on not thinking he looked like a movie star. He didn’t smile in a way that turned her knees into jelly. She never wondered what it would be like to hop in his Mercedes and cruise along Chuckanut Drive. The very idea would be disloyal to Jeff’s memory, the only man she had ever kissed.

Noelle deleted her faux typing and tried not to wonder what Peter was making her. He returned a few minutes later and presented her with a machine-made cappuccino.

“A quarter cup of whole milk steamed, with extra foam.” Peter set it on her desk. It was the exact way she’d prepared her coffee before Daniel’s diagnosis from the nutritionist.

“Thanks.” Feeling a bit guilty, Noelle reached for the mug.
