Starting Over. Whiskey Ridge, #1

After a devastating breakup, Kelly seeks a fresh start in the quaint town of Whiskey Ridge, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Dreaming of peace and healing, she opens a spa in the bottom floor of a historic home, envisioning a sanctuary that aligns with her aspirations. But tranquility turns to tension when she discovers her new neighbor upstairs runs a boisterous karate studio, disrupting her calm with every class. Quinn, the karate instructor, is more than just an unintentional nuisance; he's a man harboring a secret that could change everything between them.
Despite the noise, there's an undeniable spark of attraction beneath their surface skirmishes, fueling a classic enemies-to-lovers dynamic. As Kelly fights to maintain her newfound peace and Quinn struggles with the weight of his hidden truth, their constant bickering masks a growing connection they both try to deny. Can Kelly find the serenity she so desperately needs, or will Quinn's secret and the clash of their worlds prove too much? Set against the backdrop of a picturesque small town, this clean romance explores whether two seemingly incompatible people can find harmony and maybe, against all odds, love.
