About Inn Close Proximity: A brother’s best-friend, sweet with heat romantic comedy (Sunny Beach Bed and Breakfast Book 1):
Julie, a new business owner with laser focus and ambition to match, is determined to make her dreams of opening a bed and breakfast a reality. Her four besties are all in and ready to conquer the market with her. There’s only one tiny problem, Alex, her brother’s best friend, and the architect they’ve hired to help them.
Alex and Julie can’t seem to stop bickering as they pick fights with each other and struggle to agree on anything. Alex promised Julie’s brother he wouldn’t touch her, but there’s no denying the sizzling attraction between them.
Throw in four opinionated business partners and two overbearing Latina moms, and the recipe for chaos is complete. Will Julie and Alex rise above it all, finish the project, and find true love, before they kill each other?
This brother’s best-friend, with enemies to lovers vibes, romcom is “sweet with heat” —the sex is implied, the swearing is real, and the shenanigans are laugh-out-loud funny. This story originally appeared in the anthology “Fiesta Nights.”
