LoveReading Says
When Naomi comes to Knockemout, running from her wedding to the aid of her estranged twin, she doesn't expect to run straight into cold and unfriendly Knox. Likewise, bad-boy but unofficial town authority figure Knox doesn't do drama, especially when it comes in the form of a runaway bride blowing into town with daisies in her hair.
This is the set-up for a funny and spicy, grumpy-sunshine romance as Naomi and Knox repeatedly cross paths and get under each other's skin. Set in the small but by no means sleepy town of Knockemout, Knox and Naomi are forced to face their past while navigating their complicated circumstances.

Things We Never Got Over Synopsis
HE'S ABSOLUTELY NOT FALLING FOR THE GOOD GIRL . . .
Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon.
Knox doesn't tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded runaway bride.
Naomi wasn't just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way . . . with fists and beer. Usually in that order.
Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn't changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi's car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. The niece Naomi didn't know she had. Now she's stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home with an 11-year-old going on thirty to take care of.
There's a reason Knox doesn't do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi's life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life.
At least, that's the plan until the trouble turns to real danger.
