Black Ice, Badges & Breakthroughs: A Romantic Comedy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798244541649)

Welcome to Delaney, Maine-where winter has an attitude, the town page is a public safety hazard, and "help" arrives in a slow cooker whether you asked for it or not.

Sheriff Colby Cates has handled pressure in places most people can't pronounce. But Delaney's brand of chaos-casseroles, unsolicited kindness, and roads that turn into ice rinks without warning-doesn't come with a manual. All Colby wants is order, boundaries, and a town that respects a hazard advisory.

Too bad Delaney doesn't respect anything except community.

When black ice sends a local car into a ditch by the lake loop, Colby finds herself relying on the one person Delaney trusts more than the Sheriff: Emerson Wilder, the clinic's calm, brilliant clinician who somehow manages to triage injuries, manage gossip, and keep the entire town hydrated-all without breaking a sweat.

Colby runs on protocol. Emerson runs on people. Together, they're a disaster waiting to happen... and exactly what Delaney has been rooting for.

Black Ice, Badges & Breakthroughs is a cozy romantic comedy featuring low heat, high competence, a stubborn Sheriff with a tender center, a clinician with weaponized calm, and a small town determined to turn survival into belonging.
