It was just supposed to be a normal day at the Spruce crafts festival. Instead, I accidentally save the life of my childhood crush Noah Reed. And he has no idea how I feel at all. He is adorable, tragically introverted, and frustratingly clueless about emotion. Can't he see the longing in my eyes every time I look at his sweet face? Doesn't he get it when I drop every dang sign there is under the Texas sun that I have feelings for the guy?

I'm on the run from a bad family situation. Everyone said Dreamwood Isle is where I would find happiness at last, a balmy and promising beach town on the Texas coast. I'm tired of curling up on park benches. I hate stealing to survive. But it seems even here in paradise, I'm still struggling to find a place I belong. That changes the night I steal from a local beachside bar called the Easy Breezy. I don't make it far before Cooper—the handsome, humble owner—catches me. I already know it's the end. I'll be taken to the cops, turned in, finished. Instead, he takes me back to his place.

This holiday, two of Texas's most beloved sweethearts are finally gettin' hitched. Everyone in the small town of Spruce is overjoyed as the winter wedding kicks off. Everyone except Malcolm Tucci.
