Just One Kiss

Free-spirited Grace Sheldon is used to living on a tight budget as a freelance photographer. But nothing short of a miracle could produce the thirty thousand dollars she owes on the house she's inherited. Without steady employment, the bank refuses to give her a loan. Working a temp job won't give her nearly enough, but she'll take any little bit she can get until she figures out a solution. On her first day, though, she realizes this is no ordinary office-and her handsome new boss is no ordinary man.After Sawyer Rivera's well-planned career in Seattle officially imploded, all he's looking for is a small beach town where he can open a dog training facility and start a simple life. Except that his new office assistant is anything but simple. Grace is carefree, artsy, and knows more about her pet chickens than dogs. And she's fast becoming the best part of his day.They're complete opposites-and it's completely refreshing. But when her month of employment ends, Grace could disappear from Sawyer's life for good...unless he gives his quirky, picture-perfect assistant one incredibly convincing reason to stay.Each book in the Appletree Cove series is STANDALONE:* In the Dog House* Just One Kiss
