Never date your (sexy as hell) next door neighbor. File that under great advice—not taken.
Especially if he’s hot. And witty. And successful. Did I mention hot? Never mind. The point’s the same.
I moved to Wildrose Landing because my life was a structure fire burning down around me.
They say a phoenix rises from the ashes, new. I crossed my fingers and took a leap of faith, hoping that proved true. After a certain ex who shall not be named, did something so…unspeakable, the absolute last thing I'm looking for is love.
I don't have the energy for complications. I need time to heal. To rebuild.
Alexander Prescott stumbles into my life and doesn't care about any of that. He offers me a dream job without so much as asking for my resume...which I take without thinking. (Hey, a girl’s gotta eat.)
Besides, saying yes to new experiences is the kind of thing you do when you’re rising from the ashes and redefining yourself as fearless.
And Alexander Prescott is the walking definition of new experience.
From his dark curls and whiskey eyes to the spark of chemistry I fight like hell to ignore. He’s a bestselling author. An icon in his own time. But he says he’s in over his head and swears I’m the only one who can help.
I know there’s something he isn’t telling me but that’s okay, there’s something I’m not telling him.

This is a new series by the author and features a small town of Wildrose Landing. In the story we meet the Prescott family and this is Alexander Prescott's story. He is a very successful author who currently has writers block but when he visits his now deceased neighbor's house he has no problem writing.
All that changes when fellow writer, Evie comes to town as she is his now deceased neighbor's niece. Evie and her best friend Amelia arrive in town to move into her aunts house since she has lost her latest boyfriend, her current job and is homeless as well.
She falls hard for Wildrose and the people that live there and then Alex offers her a job. But why did he offer her the job? I am not spoiling his grand writing plan and how to get his creativity going.
I had a tough time liking Alex. First it was how he plans to use Evie. But then he treats her really badly. Honest I would have liked to seen Evie get more of a backbone and not chase after Alex more. Also in the make up scene, she accepts how he treated way too easy in my book.
Aside from that, this was a fast read and I enjoyed getting to know the characters in Wildrose and look forward to their story in future books.
I have enjoyed the authors other series and books but I did not love Evie and Alex in this story. By the time the I Love you hits and they make up. The story pretty much ends. I would have liked to see more about how they make it all work in the future but I guess thats for future stories.
I did love the supporting characters from Alex's sister to Amelia and Jack. The town sounds really exciting and fun and I really want to learn more about the supporting characters. I did think it was a great introduction to the small town and the characters in coming books.
