Margot is a bestselling romance author ✍️ Her world comes crashing down when her readers find out she’s a secret love hater *gasp*. How is she going to fix this? 💡Oh! By spending six weeks in the middle of nowhere Alaska, meeting the grumpiest lumberjack-looking-doctor-turned-caregiver-with-sexy-forearms named Forrest (aka Mountain Daddy). She just has to resist the real-life swoon worthy tropes thrown at her. Easy peasy! 😅

This is a STUNNING debut novel. I loved it 🥹 The writing was so funny, full of banter and the concept of a romance writer living in her own tropes was so good. This book was a love letter to the romance genre, to family love and the hope of finding your Happily Ever After, even through the ups and downs of life 💕
