Can these opposites turn up the heat… without burning down the house?
House-flipping sensation and YouTube star Maggie Nichols can’t wait to dig into her next challenge. Arriving in tiny Kinship, Idaho, with only a cot and a coffeemaker, Maggie is prepared to restore a crumbling Victorian mansion in four months or less.
She has her to-do lists, her blueprints, and her team. What she doesn’t have is time for sexy, laid-back landscaper Silas Wright.
The man takes flirtation to a whole new level. And he does it shirtless…sometimes pants-less. He and his service school-dropout dog are impressively persistent. But she’s not interested in putting down roots.
Not when fans tune in to watch her travel the country turning dilapidated houses into dream homes. A short-term fling on the other hand could fit nicely into her calendar. After all, Maggie remembers what fun is like. Vaguely.
As their summer gets downright steamy, Silas manages to demolish the emotional walls she’s spent years building, sending Maggie into a panic. He’s the wrench in her carefully constructed plans. With the end of the project looming, she has a decision to make. But how can she stay when her entire career is built on moving on?

I wasn’t expecting to like this one as much as I did. One thing that I loved about this book was the length. It is a LONG romance, but it fits the plot. Maggie moves to the town for a big house renovation that will take months. It makes sense that the book is long and full of different events that reflect it. It also made the romance *that* much more believable. Maggie is scared of change, and Silas is trying to change her view on that and of him. Changing one’s view on the world isn’t going to change in a week or two.
Of course, I also loved all the characters in this book. It starts out small, and as the story progresses, you become introduced to more and more characters that you love. It really ends up being a found family (but I would have never guessed it would end up that way from the first couple of chapters). This book was honestly full of great surprises in that way.
Finally, this book was really funny. I enjoyed the dialogue and the absurd happens that are (unfortunately) totally normal for a house renovation. Maybe times, I found myself chuckling and highlighting passages.
I would highly recommend this book. It was cute, funny, and heart-warming.

It took me a while to get into this book and I'm not exactly sure why. The characters are likeable, the short subplot is interesting enough and the immaculate witty banter between Silas and Maggie is SO good.
I think it was the beginning. It's very slow to build up anything between the characters, so if you're looking for insta-love romance read, this is not for you.
This was so fun to read!!! I laughed out loud so much and was smiling throughout.
I love Lucy Score, and this was nothing short of fantastic.
It was a wonderful love story with a romantic landscaper and a travelling house-flipper, with a mystery and a treasure hunt.
Silas was so funny and cute, and we can't forget Kevin.
This was such a happy read
