All she wanted was to teach him a lesson. All he wanted was her.Maya Parker's life is finally safe, simple, and predictable. She has a roof over her head, friends she can count on, and a cat who only sometimes hates her guts.The only thing that could make it better is teaching her surrogate Nana's neglectful grandson, Liam Bishop, a lesson she wishes someone had taught her parents-you don't abandon family.But when Liam finally strolls back into Carlisle Creek-infuriatingly handsome, aggravatingly likable, and far less punchable than she would have liked-everything she thought she knew about herself, about him, and about family begins to crumble.Maya's once predictable life is now anything but.Her Nana is matchmaking.Her friends are meddling.Her cat almost certainly has murder on his mind.And the revenge Maya's been dreaming of? She can kiss it goodbye. Because the only thing worse than Liam's return … is how badly she wants him to stay. Hi, I'm Chantal. I'm so happy you're here!I'm a Canadian author, lifelong book lover, coffee addict, and nap aficionado who's lived in four provinces (BC, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and my current home, Alberta). My writing journey started just five years ago, and my debut novel, Second Chance, was the first book I had the courage to publish. You can grab it for free at your favourite ebook retailers!My passion lies in writing spicy, feel-good romantic comedies filled with swoon-worthy cinnamon roll heroes and strong, relatable female heroines, with the odd cameo from other characters in the same world. I want my books to make you swoon, sigh, and laugh until you cry (and maybe pee your pants a little).Stay up to date on new releases and works in progress by signing up for my newsletter at chantalroome.com/newsletter
