Fight It (Until We Can't)

By Cissy Mecca and Tina Gallagher

He's a property analyst hired to find the cracks.

She's the operations manager who will make sure he doesn't.

Carli Porter runs The Lochwell like it's hers. The coffee shop is her living room, the book club her family, and the pub her Friday night. The building belongs to someone else, and that someone just sent his best friend to decide its fate.

Alexander Grassi is smart, annoyingly hard to hate, and has the kind of forearms that make it very difficult to stay mad at him. (She's tried. It hasn't worked.) He was supposed to write a report and leave. He wasn't supposed to start showing up to trivia night. Or turning her coffee cup so the handle faces her. Or looking at her like she's the best thing in a building full of things worth saving.

She says his report could ruin her life.

He says she's not wrong.

She says that makes him the last person she should want around.

He says he's staying anyway.

Because some legacies and people are worth fighting for.
