Publisher Description
When Gwen Fletcher moves to Misty Harbor, Maine to fulfill her dream of opening her own restaurant, she isn't prepared for the throng of suitors who want to pay homage to the town's only bachelorette. Much to the dismay of the town's gentlemen, Gwen has only two things on her mind-getting her restaurant open before the tourist season begins and getting to know carpenter Daniel Creighton. But the uncooperative Creighton's odd behavior may preclude her from doing either of these.

"In love with this book. A crazy woman in love with a priest... A classically unavailable male! Also, A quiet fisherman who has the makings of a serial killer in love with her, but she doesn't realize it. The lack of communication causes the crazy girl to jump to conclusions that are laughable, yet similar to my own life!"
— Nina (4 out of 5 stars)

" I simply love this story! Funny and believable, with a great, strong heroine and a contemporary setting. I still feel a bit cheated about the puppy in the cover, though... "

" best book i read in a long time!! "
— Brendy, 2/2/2014 -
" I loved it. Who ever thought a quiet, 'scowly' kind of bloke would just do it for me? I love Kristan's books, she writes such human characters that are just so real. Again, I laughed and I cried in it. I really cared about the characters. "
— Angela, 1/29/2014 -
" This was really funny....I'm loving Ms. Higgins books right now. I love Malone! "
— Say, 1/25/2014 -
" Great read! Finished it in 24 hours that is how much I enjoyed it. I laughed, I cried and I didn't want it to end. I'm hooked on Kristan's books! "
— Anna, 1/23/2014 -
" Maybe it was just me, but I had no problem putting the book down during the first half, but it did get better as it went. "
— Deb, 1/20/2014 -
" At first, the first person, present tense threw me. It really took some getting used to, but I loved Maggie's voice, so that helped a lot. It's hard to fall for a hero who rarely speaks, but the other characters who inhabit Gideon's Cove are great fun. "
— Alison, 1/14/2014 -
" Pretty good, but not my favorite Higgins. I didn't really get the appeal of the hero in this one, just a little too rough around the edges for me, I guess. I also felt that the ending was a bit abrupt, and did not tie up all the loose ends. "
— Lesley, 12/31/2013 -
" I absolutely loved this book. Maggie is just a great character and it was so much fun being inside her head. And yes, Malone acts like a big jerk more than once, but I love him anyway. I just have a thing for taciturn, brooding men:) "
— Cathica, 12/17/2013 -
" Another AWESOME book by Kristan Higgins. Her characters are so real, and relatable. Like they could be friends and neighbors. I could totally understand how Maggie could have a crush on Father Tim. LOVED Maggie and Malone. (Not gonna spoil the book), but was crying in parts....VERY GOOD BOOK!!!! "
— Brandy, 11/7/2013 -
" Yes, I liked this one too. Good grief, they're like chocolate for me. They bring a smile to my face as I consume it and then feel a little guilty pleasure when I'm done! Kristan's books are funny, irrational, witty, and a little naughty BUT always entertaining. "
— Teea, 7/18/2012 -
" pretty good, but i really don't like men who don't talk that much. it makes the relationship that make harder. "
— Brianna, 7/11/2012 -
" I liked this book. It is a light contemporary romance with good characters and a setting that were written believably. Kristan Higgins always has a great animal character in her books. I have now moved on to another of her books. "
— April, 3/9/2012 -
" fave of all Kristan Higgins I've read thus far "
— Katy, 12/7/2011 -
" Dissapointing. I really wanted to like this book, but the character development was so shallow. Seriously- Malone growls a few words and Maggie falls for him? What is that about? "
— Marie, 10/4/2011 -
" Good chick-lit. Maggie and Malone hold my attenion. "
— Linda, 4/16/2011 -
" it lacked a little.. cute story that needed more detail.. "
— Wendi, 12/8/2010 -
" Love this author but this is my least fav book of hers. At times I found Maggie annoying and exhausting. "
— Heidi, 1/13/2010 -
" This was a cute, clean romance. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and look forward to reading more by this author. "
