About this ebook

USA Today author Melissa Schroeder invites you back to the world of Juniper Springs, and the one man who lives life on his own terms, CARTER HAWTHORNE.

I’ve always been the brother who everyone calls the flirt. The one who isn’t too serious, the one who is a little…different. 

And I don’t mind that title. In fact, I use my ability to think outside of the box to help my family in their business. 

I’m also known as the player, although, I haven’t…suited up in a while. So maybe that’s why I’ve become completely infatuated with my old childhood friend Piper Abernathy.

Just saying her name makes me itch beneath my skin. I want to know what she’s thinking, how she spends her days, and I fantasize what her hair smells like. 

Weird, right?  

And her lips…they are intoxicating. One taste will never be enough, and while I can talk her into my bed, she resists me beyond that. 

She says we make each other bonkers, and she doesn’t believe in happily ever after.

For a woman who plans out ever minute of her day, she never counted on me, and I aim to prove to her there’s nothing wrong with crazy as long as we’re together.

Author Note: If you’ve met Carter, you know just how insane he is. He’s in Juniper, wooing his old childhood friend, irritating his brother, making friends with the LOLs, and becoming at one with the Juniper Springs culture. And if you think he’s crazy with his family, just wait until you see the things he does to his lady love.

I liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with a few exceptions. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. Carter and Piper were best friends until Carter's hormones kicked in and he decided to ditch Piper as a friend and hook up with other girls. Piper ended up getting sent to a boarding school but when she came back home she avoided Carter because he was always with a girl. After 20 years apart they were both living in the same town again.

This is the second book in the Juniper Springs Series. If you've read other books in the series you've met Piper and Carter. We're so glad that Piper and Carter have their own story. Their chemistry is great and they have a lot of water under the dam between them. They were childhood friends who went their separate ways and some bad feelings developed between them. Carter's back in town and determined to win her back. You will love this story. The characters are so well developed and likable. The story line will grab your attention right at the beginning and take you on an emotional journey as they work their way toward a second chance.

This is the 2nd book in the JuniperSprings series featuring Carter&Piper's complicated second chance romance.Carter&Piper are both unique children&you could really feel the bond between them even when they were kids sharing their factoids only with each other.You just had the sense that they were made for each other until things change when her parents divorce they send her away toschool so her&Carter lose touch.Now years later Piper has left NY to return to the small town that she grew up in to practice medicine.The LOL'S think that they belong together so they plan to manipulate them into getting married. Carter&Piper decide to team up&pretend that they're in a relationship to get their parents to stop trying to marry them off.I don't want to say anymore&ruin it for anyone else with spoilers.You really need to read this wonderful,funny,delightful story to see what happens. This book's a MUST READ I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review

About the author

From an early age, USA Today Bestselling author Melissa Schroeder loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book.


Since her first published book, Grace Under Pressure, Mel has had over 60 short stories, novellas, and novels published. She has written in genres ranging from historical to contemporary to futuristic and has worked with 8 publishers although she handles most of her publishing herself. She is best known for her Harmless and Santini series.


After years of following her military husband around the country and world, Mel happily lives with her family in horse and wine country in Northern Virginia.
