About this item

Fifteen years ago, a game of Truth or Dare ended in a kiss that would forever change two women’s lives. Can they open up their hearts after years of hurt?

After years away, Clara Chandler finds herself back in her Vermont hometown, nursing wounds from a shattered life in New York City. But her return comes with a bitter surprise: the inn her family once owned is on the verge of being sold to the one person she never wanted to see again.

Once an outcast, Lucy has transformed her life and is ready to reclaim her family’s legacy by purchasing the inn that slipped through their fingers generations ago. But Clara’s return throws an unexpected curveball, as the woman has no intention of letting Lucy win.

When outside forces intervene to threaten them both, Clara must swallow her pride and partner up with her former high school rival to save the inn. In the process, Clara discovers that Lucy is no longer the rebellious girl she once knew, but an intriguing—and sexy—woman whose presence has Clara tied up in knots.

With each passing day, the simmering tension between them ignites a passion neither can deny. But to move forward, Clara and Lucy must both confront the hurt and fear that has held them back.

In this heartfelt tale of redemption and desire, Clara and Lucy will learn that sometimes the greatest risks lead to the sweetest rewards. Will they find the courage to embrace their feelings and turn a second chance into a lifelong romance?

Don't miss this feel-good, enemies to lovers, small town romance by bestselling sapphic author duo T.B. Markinson & Miranda MacLeod.

    This book has it all high school drama , enemies to lover, small town vs big city and holiday magic.... what's not to love. I really enjoyed how the authors built the back story with Lucy and Clara being childhood friends who through unfortunate circumstances become long time enemies. The two work through past misunderstanding while working towards the common goal of saving a family legacy. If you like stories with intriguing characters, humorous dialogue and an engaging story line, this a the book for you.

    4.0 out of 5 stars kind of a bit of the same old same old

    This was good, though I am growing a little tired of the well off white girls having life go exactly their way all the time. I know this is a book and we're here for the escapism and everything, but having so many opportunities constantly falling in Clara's lap and her having exactly the right skills to succeed got a little old a little fast. Aside from the MCs most of the cast was forgettable.

    The romance between Clara and Lucy made tons of sense and you could see the chemistry building from their first kiss in high school. What didn't make a lot of sense for me was the animosity that Clara put into their relationship in the beginning. And apparently the entire thing with them not being friends when Lucy moved back in high school to begin with was a misunderstanding on both their parts.

    There is no third act breakup, though there is a brief period where Lucy becomes unavailable right when Clara is trying to make an important decision regarding their life together. This was probably the only time I felt that Lucy acted against her character by withdrawing and kind of giving up. That isn't who she is in the rest of the book so it was irksome.

    Clara has turned up back in her hometown trying to figure out how to move forward with her life. Lucy has changed and grown a lot since high school. Clara however is still holding on to her anger at something she thinks Lucy did. Their shared moment in high school has stayed with them both through out the years. Their banter is amusing and their attraction is unstoppable. I had so much fun reading this book. I enjoy the small town and all it's characters. It was romantic and sexy as always.

    Once Clara settled down and started acting like an adult, I really began to enjoy this romance. It was touch and go for a bit though. Lucy was awesome throughout. Loved Lucy’s back story. This is a festive read.
