Her plan: unveil the secret identity of a chart-topping author living in her hometown. And while everyone at the local café is eager to help, no one can solve the mystery. Not even her drive-me-crazy ex-boyfriend who she’d rather not see again. As in, never.      Thorne Kent is shocked when Athena walks into his café. After all, their relationship went down in flames not just once but twice. There’s no denying the chemistry between them still burns. So why did she risk coming back to town? It’s going to be a long, hot summer…unless the third time really is the charm.

Now she has to see him nearly every...single...day.The only solution is to find C.L. Garland as quickly as possible, write the book, and get the heck out of town. As her deadline looms and the list of potential C.L. Garlands dwindles, Athena and Thorne bicker and banter their way back to friendship.

Her love life is upside down and backwards, and her professional learning curve is steep, but everything's going her way. Except it isn't. She feels like a fraud, as fake as her mother's fantasy that their family is a version of the March family in Little Women. Her real life's on hold, the one where she's a painter, not a professor. Where her sister Jo, whose career she derailed, gets the dream job she deserves. Where Theo, the guy she's loved since forever, forgives her for messing up his life. When circumstances compel Amy to live in Theo's house, she realizes this may be her last chance to heal their broken friendship. Making up for her mistakes, she just might turn her life around. If Theo will let her back in his. She doesn't have a chance to win his heart, though. It belongs to Jo. Doesn't it? Or has she been looking at Theo upside down and backwards? Maybe it's not too late to paint herself in the picture of Theo's world"--
