Expanding my successful café was a no-brainer.
Sleeping with the contractor?
Well, mix some hormones, excellent coffee, and the romantic atmosphere of the movie Halloween, and naked stuff happens.
Yeah, Gideon is smokin' hot, as shown by the photos from that pesky camera crew that's suddenly following us around.
Say what?
Because surprise—he's a single father, and now he's the most eligible one in Crescent Cove.
Every horny woman in our small town wants a go at his tool…belt.
And then we're caught on camera—I still had my pants on, thank you—and all Hades breaks loose.
Now the little secret he kept from me isn't nearly as important as Gideon keeping custody of his daughter.
When that full moon rises on Halloween, I might finally be dropping my mask. And risking it all for love…and really good hammering.
Author's note: This romantic comedy is Macy and Gideon's story—finally!—and has a happily-ever-after ending.
Macy is busy with her coffee shop and a new restaurant about to open. She doesn't have time for a man, and she's definitely not looking to "drink the water" in Crescent Cove and end up pregnant, but a little fling might help her get some sleep. And she knows just who she wants, and that's John Gideon.
Gideon is busy working on the renovations for Macy's restaurant and when he gets the greenlight from Macy in the form of a kiss, he's going for it. There's only one problem -- everyone in town knows Macy is not interested in kids (and I mean everyone, it struck me as odd that just about every characters says something about it) and the first bump in the road for them is the fact that Gideon has a young daughter.
There's a cute bit with Gideon's daughter forcing the situation with a social media ad and the conflict is provided by the return of the ex. Standard stuff, there aren't any surprises in the story.
Macy and Gideon do work well together. She's hot and spicy and he's solid with a nice streak of "alpha" to him. He knows he wants Macy and isn't afraid to say it. They work well together in and out of the bedroom.
So, overall, no big surprises, a steamy likeable couple, a cute daughter and it's all good romance.

About the Authors
USA Today bestselling author Cari Quinn likes music and men, so she figured why not write about both? When she's not writing, she's screaming at men's college basketball games on TV, playing her music too loud or causing trouble. Sometimes simultaneously.
USA Today bestselling author Taryn Elliott is obsessed with rock stars, men, and her unending playlists--maximizing these things seemed like a very good idea. When she's not writing, she's losing hours to hot men on TV, and/or a graphic design project. Multitasking is her middle name.
They decided to combine forces and found that hey...this writing deal is even more awesome when you collaborate with your best friend.
