In this heated rivalry, will love be the final result? After checking her salty attitude and grinding for years, Remi James has worked her way up to become star bartender at an upscale Seattle bar. She’s finally on track for the promotion (and the home loan approval) of her dreams—until Maya Marek walks in. Suddenly, Remi has competition. Willowy, blonde, infuriatingly talented competition… The last thing friendly, cheerful Maya expects on her first day is to clash so spectacularly with the prickly senior bartender—or to find herself inexplicably drawn to the feisty woman. But she needs this paycheck to afford grad school, and no amount of snarky comments, pouty lips, and to-die-for curves will get in her way. Remi and Maya are rivals. That’s why they’re so aware of each other in the tight space behind the bar, and in the walk-in refrigerator… right? But when family emergencies and painful pasts come to light, they're forced to see each other in a new way. When the line between rivalry and romance begins to blur, can Remi and Maya dare to sacrifice their dreams to reach for something new? With snarky banter and steamy tension In Walked Trouble serves up the perfect cocktail of humor and heat. Fans of Ashley Herring Blake, Casey McQuiston, and Alexis Hall will fall hard for this fresh, flirty rom-com about taking risks, letting your guard down, and finding love in unexpected places.
