At least, not until he had a long and successful career as a pitcher in the major leagues. He couldn’t have foreseen his career-ending injury right out of the gate or the painful return to his family’s apple farm in rural North Carolina. What started as an effort to get back on his feet turned into nearly a decade of going with the flow. Now the grumpy farmer is stuck in a resentful rut. He’s bitter and bearded, and baseball is a sore spot that never stops aching--not when his well-meaning neighbors keep reminding him of everything he lost. 𝗦𝗵𝗲’𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗼𝘄𝗻, 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝗻𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.Becca Kernsy never expected to fall in love with a town. To be fair, she’d never had much luck with men either. But the tiny hamlet of Kirby Falls completely blindsides this city girl and makes her ache for something she’s never had before: a place to belong. The residents are quirky and lovable. The setting is picturesque perfection. And it doesn’t hurt that she keeps running into Will Clark and his faithful dog. Getting a reluctant smile out of the handsome farmer becomes her favorite pastime. But pretty soon, her innocent crush gets out of hand. Becca ignores the looming expiration date on her trip down south, and like a helpless cliche, she finds herself falling hard for the man she met on vacation.

The only missing piece is the tourist who’s headed back to the city at the end of her stay. The one packing up and taking his heart on a six-hundred-mile journey home.

Their neighboring farms have been fierce competitors for years, fueling the fire between them. From adolescent pranks to social media battles, the pair have taken their feuding too far a time or two. So no one is more surprised than the rivals themselves when a sudden kiss and a scorching attraction change everything in an instant. Mac would like to believe their fling will burn itself out, but the more time she and Brady spend not fighting, the harder it is to admit the truth. That maybe their hatred was a smoke screen all along. Roles shift and expectations change when a lifelong rivalry makes way for something more, but these stubborn hearts must learn to surrender before they go up in flames.Book #3 in the Kirby Falls small-town contemporary series follows the steamy, rivals-to-lovers romance between a dirty-talking golden retriever and the last person he ever thought he’d fall for. ‘Leaf and Let Die’ is a full-length romantic comedy filled with humor, heat, and a guaranteed happily ever after. less
