Book Overview
Callum Lockswood signed up for a mail-order bride service, hoping for a fresh start—not a full plate of chaos. But that’s exactly what he gets when he moves to Silverton, a picture-perfect little town where he finds out his bride is the town grump.
Marigold “Goldi” Baker runs Silverton’s oldest and most trusted equipment rental service—a family business passed down for generations. She’s all muscle and pretty as a peach, overworked and underwhelmed by dating… until she comes home to find her groom to be fast asleep in her bed. Worse yet? He’s brought along with his marriage proposal a surprise that could turn her world upside down.
Between sizzling chemistry, unexpected twists, and a town that thrives on gossip, Goldi, Locks and Silverton serves up a laugh-out-loud, heartwarming tale about love, second chances, and what it truly means to build a family—one messy, ATV rental at a time.
Perfect for fans of small-town charm, on the page chemistry, this story proves that sometimes the sweetest things come with a little heat.
