A summer favor in Cottonwood Cove

In Cottonwood Cove, a familiar friendship runs up against a clear boundary: Lila is the younger sister of her brother’s best friend, and their connection has long been framed as protective and off-limits. When she returns home for the summer and asks him for an intimate favor, the arrangement is meant to stay temporary and secret. The setup brings together a best-friend’s-sister romance, a summer stay, and the question of whether an agreed boundary can hold when feelings enter the picture. This first Cottonwood Cove novel is described as a standalone, with the series continuing through four further titles.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers interested in contemporary romance built around a best friend’s younger sister.

Book overview

She's my best friend's little sister. Completely off-limits. But every man has his breaking point.

 

Lila James is my best friend's little sister and I've always looked out for her.

She's five years younger than me, and when she left for college, she was just a kid.

But now she's home for the summer-and she's definitely not a kid anymore.

She's beautiful and smart and everything I didn't know I needed.

Dark eyes. Long wavy hair. And legs that are meant to be wrapped around me.

I'm the guy who likes to have a good time.

Keep things light.

When her brother asks me to hire her at my restaurant, it's a no-brainer.

There isn't anything I wouldn't do for her.

Until she asks me for one more favor.

She wants me to be her first.

Take her V-card.

Go where no man has gone before.

Her words, not mine.

And damn if I don't want to go there more than I've ever wanted anything.

She's only here for the summer, and she says it will be our secret.

It's temporary.

We'll go back to being just friends at the end of summer.

She promises that she won't fall for me.

She knows better.

But Lila isn't the one I'm worried about.
