A Plan for Escape: Small Town Romance. The Mess Of Love, #2

I TRADED THE SKYSCRAPERS FOR A PORCH LIGHT, BUT THE CITY REFUSES TO LET ME GOI thought the hardest part was coming home. I was wrong. My name is Tessa Quinn, and I didn't just return to Cedar Ridge to plant flowers; I came back to plant roots. I found my place in the arms of Emmett Lawson, the carpenter who rebuilt my heart one porch step at a time. We were supposed to be building a future, a legacy in the form of a town park.
But the city I left behind has a long reach. A corporate developer has arrived with deep pockets and a team of lawyers, intent on turning our history into a parking lot. They aren't just coming for the land; they are coming for Emmett's workshop, his legacy, and the very ground we stand on. They offered us a way out-a settlement, a plan for escape. They thought we would take the money and run. They forgot that Lawsons and Quinns don't run.
I spent years navigating boardrooms, and now I'm using every trick I learned to protect the man who taught me what home really means. They want to bulldoze our past? They'll have to go through me first.????? "This sequel takes the cozy small-town vibes and sets them on fire. The way Tessa steps up to defend Emmett? Chills.
