Falling Home to Spruce Pine

Falling Home to Spruce Pine

She knows how to make something beautiful from a lump of clay. Fixing her crumbling building-and the man doing the repairs-is another story.

Wren Holloway has built a life she loves in Spruce Pine, North Carolina.

Her little shop, Holloway Clay & Coffee, is equal parts pottery studio, gallery, coffee counter, and controlled chaos. It's hers. It's imperfect. And she likes it that way.

Then the building decides it has other ideas.

Enter Jack Sullivan.

At thirty-two, Jack restores historic homes for a living. He's practical, competent, maddeningly calm, and entirely unimpressed by Wren's insistence that certain structural problems can probably wait until after pumpkin season.

Forced into each other's space while Jack tackles the repairs, Wren quickly discovers there are few things more dangerous than a man who knows how to use his hands-and fewer still than one who quietly starts fitting into the life she never thought needed changing.

Between mountain mornings, coffee breaks, sawdust, pottery mishaps, meddling neighbors, and Maple-the enormous orange cat who considers the shop her personal kingdom-the line between irritation and attraction starts disappearing fast.

Set against the Blue Ridge Mountains in the fall of 2007, Falling Home to Spruce Pine is a cozy, spicy opposites-attract romance featuring forced proximity, a wonderfully competent hero, small-town meddling, autumn mountain nostalgia, and a complete happily ever after.

Sometimes home isn't something you find. It's something you build.
