(PREORDER) Piece By Piece (EBOOK)

She talks to everyone. He'd rather talk to no one. And the wall between their two shops is thinner than either of them thinks. Releasing August 25th. Liza Forrester left her high-pressure Charleston marketing career with no plan beyond catching her breath. Filling in at Down Yonder Books while Dixie recovers from a sprained wrist was supposed to be temporary. But somewhere between reimagining the children's corner and dreaming up a Books & Brains night for Seagrove's kids, Liza starts to wonder if the life she walked away from was ever really hers. Next door, Grant Whitmore just wants quiet. The burned-out creator of a hit puzzle app, he's come to Seagrove to open The Puzzle Post, a little shop of brain games, crossword books, and wooden puzzles, and to build something slower and more lasting than tech life ever gave him. His plan is simple: keep his head down, avoid complications, and never fall in love again. Then Julie signs them both up for the summer festival committee without asking either one. Now the sunniest woman in town and its most reluctant newcomer are stuck working side by side, and the more Liza chips away at Grant's silence, the more she suspects there's a story underneath it. Because Grant is keeping a secret, and the truth is closer to Liza's heart than either of them could guess. Sometimes the life you're meant for comes together the same way a puzzle does. One piece at a time.
