It's Never Going to Happen - Paperback

Gemma O'Brien doesn't do surprises.

Gemma is barely keeping her head above water. Between running a lobster fishing business, staying sober, and keeping an eye on her reckless younger sister, she doesn't need her best friend Eric meddling with the business behind her back. Especially when that buyer is Forage and Trawl, a fancy new restaurant with an intense and demanding head chef, Kay Grammar.

Kay Grammar needs no distractions.

Kay has everything riding on the opening of Forage and Trawl, her dream restaurant. After escaping a controlling boss who shattered her self-confidence, she's determined to prove she can stand on her own even as she struggles to trust herself. But when her path keeps crossing with blunt, infuriatingly attractive, charmingly butch lobster boat captain Gemma, Kay is challenged in more ways than one.

They're olive oil and salt water. Fire and ice. And they agree on only one thing: keep it professional. But fate-and their suddenly way-too-small town-has other ideas.

As the grand opening draws closer, tensions spark and chemistry simmers. Are Gemma and Kay brave enough to stop surviving and start something real...even if love means navigating the wreckage of their pasts?
