He was supposed to be an anonymous one-night fling. Now she's considering forever.
Cass Ortiz doesn't do complicated. She's content managing her best friend's cafe and keeping her connections with everyone where they belong, at arm's length. When a chance encounter in a crowded bar turns quickly into a steamy one-night stand, she throws her usual rules out the window, with a big exception: no names or personal details.
Griffin Turner is building a new life in Fort Starling after moving with his two kids to live closer to his ex-wife's dream job. Imagine his surprise when he walks into the bar owned by his brother's fiancée to find the mysterious one-night stand he can't get out of his head.
Griffin is convinced it's fate, but Cass is determined to keep him and the terrifying feelings he brings to the surface at a distance. When an unlikely friendship forms between Cass and Griffin's thirteen-year-old daughter, the walls Cass built around her heart are tested, and her visions of the future shift.
Will the intense chemistry between them be enough for Cass to let her guard down? Can Griffin convince her that sometimes, complications are worth the risk?
The Chemistry Complication is a single-dad, age gap romance with open-door spice, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA. It can be read as a standalone or enjoyed as part of the Songbird Cafe series.
