Reserved Indefinitely: The Watauga Lake Series Book 1

By: Morrigan, Rhea

Equal parts slow-burn and scorchingly steamy, "Reserved Indefinitely" delivers:

A grumpy/sunshine, enemies-to-lovers / neighbors-to-lovers romance on the shores of Watauga LakeA fiercely loyal heroine who carries a .45, makes the best biscuits and gravy, and refuses to back down from loveA broken hero who's more than the town's favorite rumor, fighting to reclaim his past and his futureFound family, small-town gossip, late-night confessions and heat that will fog up your roomWhen a fire destroys Josh Gann's lakeside pottery studio, the tight-knit town is quick to whisper that he did it for the insurance money. Never mind that the gallery was his whole life. Newly displaced, under suspicion, and grappling with old scars he never talks about, Josh retreats behind sarcasm, long hours and the wheel.

Novah is a wildly successful romance author who can plot a happily-ever-after in her sleep, but real life is messier than anything she puts on the page. She moved to the lake for quiet and words, not a grumpy, gorgeous neighbor who smells like clay and coffee and kisses like he's starving. Yet, when an old article links Josh's arson to a decades-old, unsolved wreck and to a little boy who may have lost far more than his home, Novah's instinct to dig for stores uncovers a truth that could shatter Josh.

For readers who crave emotional depth, layered mystery and a couple who has to fight like hell for their happily-ever-after, "Reserved Indefinitely" will keep you up way past bedtime, and then leave you desperate for the next book in the series.
