The Handyman's Agreement: A Small Town Enemies-to-Lovers Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798187146758)

He broke my heart once. Now he's the only one who can fix my house-and my life.

When I inherit my grandmother's dilapidated cottage in Birchwood, I know exactly who to call for repairs: Leo Blackwood, the grumpiest handyman in town. He's also the man who shattered my trust a decade ago. He's all hard muscles, brooding eyes, and a voice that commands attention. The perfect alpha male hero-if he weren't so infuriating.

But Leo has a problem. His meddling family is pushing him into marriage with the town's golden girl, and he needs a temporary girlfriend to buy time. His offer? Pretend to be his for the summer, and I get a free renovation. It's a simple business deal: fake romance, forced proximity, and zero emotions.

Except nothing is simple about sharing a cramped house with Leo Blackwood. Between hammering nails and stirring up old flames, the chemistry is explosive. He's all grumpy sunshine, and I'm falling for him all over again. But Leo is keeping secrets-secrets that could demolish everything we're building together. Our agreement has an expiration date, and when it comes, will he choose me, or will our second chance crumble to dust?

In this steamy contemporary fiction, the lines between fake and real blur until there's nothing left but raw, undeniable passion. If you love billionaire fake relationship books, grumpy sunshine trope books, forced proximity love stories, alpha male hero collections, steamy contemporary fiction, second chance love novels, or workplace love sagas, this enemies-to-lovers tale will keep you turning pages late into the night.

When the final wall comes down, will our love story have a foundation strong enough to last? Or will this handyman's agreement end in disaster?
