About this book
A bearded, no-nonsense barber who values solitude meets a runaway bride with literally nothing but the clothes on her back and a precocious 11-year-old she's suddenly responsible for—and what could possibly go wrong? Knox has built his quiet life for a reason, but when Naomi's carefully avoided complications crash into his world, he can't seem to help himself from being her unlikely hero. As Naomi tries to rebuild her life in the rough-and-tumble town of Knockemout, their tentative partnership transforms into something neither of them expected, especially when real danger emerges from the chaos.

“Create a playlist called Things We Never Got Over. Gritty indie rock meets sultry R&B slow burns. Think weathered vulnerability, tension-soaked chemistry, and small-town grit with unexpected tenderness. Mix brooding guitar with sensual vocals—raw, defiant, achingly honest. Indie darlings, soulful ballads, and songs about second chances and walls coming down.”
