Rule No. 2: Don't sleep with the grumpy mechanic. I thrive on taking a few ordinary flowers and turning them into something breath-taking. But no matter how reliable my talent or sunny my personality is, my delivery van isn’t. It has a habit of letting me down at the last minute leaving me no choice but to call for help. When the grumpy, sexy as all get-out mechanic finally offers some assistance, I also show him my grandfather’s prized muscle car, hoping he can restore it. After one hot night on the hood, ignoring my attraction to him is impossible. I know how he tastes, how he makes me feel. Jake makes my blood sing on every level. Add to that a good dose of attitude and a body to die for. He's also a bad boy with a past. A fixer-upper. Except the only thing I have time to fix up right now is the farm I’m renovating to become a wedding venue. Or maybe he's worth the risk after all.

This book has my favorite trope with grumpy mechanic Jake and sunshiny Lily. Jake had a rough childhood so there are few people that he trusts and even fewer that he loves. He meets Lily at a point where she is probably not at her best since her van is broken down and she needs to deliver the flowers that she was carrying. Jake tells her she would be better off just letting it go and buying something new. She explains that the van is sentimental to her because of her grandmother and he just doesn't see why she can't see that as a problem. As they keep running into each other and spend more time together, they soon realize that they are attracted to each other. They act on that attraction and as they talk, they realize that they have a lot in common even though they grew up completely differently. Even though they are immediately attracted to each other physically, watching the relationship, romance and love grow between them was really sweet.
