Blurb
What is wrong meets what feels right in this romance set in Italy by the New York Times bestselling author of Deep End.

Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life.

Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him.

It's such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother's best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it clear that he wants her gone from his life.

But not everything is as it seems--and clichés sometimes become plot twists.

When Maya's brother decides to get married in Taormina, she and Conor end up stuck together in a romantic Sicilian villa for over a week. There, on the beautiful Ionian coast, between ancient ruins, delicious foods, and natural caves, Maya realizes that Conor might be hiding something from her. And as the destination wedding begins to erupt out of control, she decides that a summer fling might be just what she needs--even if it's a problematic one.

TBR Flower is even more beautiful in person. I absolutely love it. And such a cool way to do your TBR. Easy to setup. And lots of room in the base to store more TBR. I am so glad I ordered this. Can't wait to display on my shelf. Very well made. Extremely pleased with my purchase. The BookClub Boutique is my new favorite store. ❤️

Books because reality is overrated enamel pin

I love this reading journal! It is so pretty and so many great prompts and questions for reading

I love this reading journal! It is so pretty and so many great prompts and questions for reading. I actually feel more motivated to read more so I can write in this journal. I love tracking what I read and writing down notes about each book. One teeny tiny thing I would have liked to see is a TBR list and/or wishlist for new books. I know there is only so much space . I used the blank note pages at the back of the journal to create a TBR and a wish list. Everything else is great! Absolutely love using my reading journal. I constantly look back on my progress and notes I have written down. Once I finished my current reading journal, I will grab another one from you! Beautiful work!
