1 post | 2 read
"Gorgeously romantic and utterly charming, Love Around the Corner is the perfect way to while away a couple of hours on a winter afternoon" -- All About RomanceReal life enemies, online lovers. Two lonely men, destined for each other-if only they knew it.Alfie Carter grew up in New Milton, caring for his sick father and keeping their auto repair shop on its feet. He's touchy about his poor education and doesn't take kindly to snide remarks from the town's prickly bookstore owner-no matter how cute he looks in his skinny jeans. Left to run the family business alone, Alfie spends his lonely evenings indulging his secret passion for classic fiction and chatting online with witty, romantic 'LLB' as they fall in love over literature.Leo Novak's new life as owner of Bayside Books is floundering. And he could do without the town's gorgeous, moody mechanic holding a grudge against him after an unfortunate-and totally not his fault- encounter last Christmas. Still reeling from a bad breakup and struggling to make friends in New Milton, Leo seeks comfort in his blossoming online romance with thoughtful, bookish 'Camaro89'. But as the holidays approach, 'LLB' and 'Camaro89' are planning to meet, and realities are about to collide... This novella is approximately 39,000 words and comes with a HEA guaranteed.

Pickpick

Normally this would make me come over all Relationship Advice Dalek (COMM-UNI-CATE! COMM-UNI-CATE!) but they are stupid in so normal a way I let it slide right now. If you get embarrassment squick from stupid misunderstandings this may not be for you, though. It turned out cute enough to work overall, for me.
