Daphne loves living in Harleysville, the small mountain town that boasts friendly and supernatural residents, with only three exceptions. First, clients for her decorating business are few, and after having lost everything in a divorce that she really should have seen coming, a little cash to fix her sagging roof would be welcome. Second, does her elderly witch neighbor have to be so intrusive all the time? And third, why are the only available men in town either uninterested in dating someone in their forties or incapable of slurping their own soup? After all, it's not like she's insisting that her special someone look like her lifelong crush, Rock Hudson. At her age, she can't afford to be picky if she wants to join the ranks of Harleysville residents who have mated for life.
But when Rollins St. Clair shows up at her door selling band candy, intrigue over the town's latest resident quickly turns to anger. Sure, the grimm has Rock's chin, and yes, he's age appropriate since he's somewhere north of dirt. And okay, he's the new owner of Sinclair Manor, the house Daphne wants to decorate with every fiber of her being, but grimms are notoriously... grim. Plus, he's rude, a point that she intends to drive home to him, too. At length. The sooner the better.
Rollins is excited by his move back to the house he built over a hundred years ago. He can't wait to get started teaching at the local high school that understands about his grimm duties and will make allowances. His dreary, lonely life appears to be looking up, but then he's sent out by the principal to sell band candy. At first, all the neighbors seem nice, but then he encounters the rudest woman that he's ever had the misfortune of meeting. In no world will he sell Daphne Thompson his candy... or even bother speaking to her again, unless it's to tell her anew just how reprehensible he finds her. Except, of course, his libido has other ideas. What starts out as annoyance fast becomes desire, which quickly turns into romance with the woman who makes him long to give it all up for her.
But can a grimm really fall in love with a human, one whose witchy powers are nonexistent and whose life will probably be short and ordinary? And can any woman fall for Death's henchman, especially once he's ordered to give his grim tidings to her best friend? Because it's one thing knowing what he is. It's another to have his job threaten the person she loves most... except him.
