The Rewrite

Rory James is on a deadline. Her latest manuscript is due in just a few months, but there's one major problem: she can't write the happy ending her publisher is demanding.

Desperate for inspiration, Rory accepts an unusual opportunity that brings her to a quaint mountain town, where she'll spend the season at an idyllic hotel closed for renovations. Surrounded by quiet landscapes and small-town charm, it seems like the perfect place to finally finish her story. Until she meets Finn Cowell.

As the head contractor overseeing the hotel's biggest renovation yet, Finn has no time for distractions—especially not in the form of a bubbly, endlessly curious writer who keeps getting under his skin. They clash almost immediately. But irritation quickly gives way to something far more dangerous: undeniable attraction.

What begins as a temporary affair with a clear end date soon proves harder to walk away from than either of them expected. And as Rory struggles to write the happy ending her book needs, she begins to realize that sometimes what you want and what you truly need are two very different things.
