Almost Definitely Never

**WINNER of the 2024 Next Generation Indie Book Awards for Series Fiction (Jasmine Falls Love Stories series)**

Falling for her rival? Never. Definitely not. Except...

For Sadie, managing her parents' bed and breakfast for a week was supposed to be a breeze-but when her VIP group checks in, she's horrified to collide with the one person she never wanted to see again.

James Fielding: celebrity travel writer, internet darling...and Sadie's biggest college rival. Back then, he made everything a competition-and his unfairly sexy smirk taunted her each time she wasn't quite good enough. Now he's back, boasting his biggest win yet: hosting a TV show.

The show means a boon for Sadie's hometown-so everyone's counting on her to play nice. Determined not to be outshined, she brings her saltiest banter... and makes TV gold. When James's producer offers her a lead role, she finally has a chance to one-up James where it matters most-in the spotlight. But as filming brings them closer, Sadie can't ignore how his teasing makes her heart race...and how he encourages her to shine brighter.

As the wrap draws near, Sadie wonders: did she have James pegged wrong all along? Why is he so intent on helping her pivot her career? And why is she fantasizing about what they might do together when their lives are no longer scripted?

From the IPPY-award-winning author of One Sweet Holiday comes a sweet, closed-door romance that will leave you swooning. Each book in the Jasmine Falls series can be enjoyed as a standalone-and as always, the HEA is guaranteed. Perfect for fans of Sarah Adams, Katherine Center, and B.K. Borison.
