It's Only Love

by Susan Coventry

Charlotte (Charlie) Foster is the proud owner of a used bookstore in her hometown of Ortonville, Michigan. When her long-term boyfriend moves out, Charlie decides to rent the apartment above her garage. She’s looking for a quiet, mature tenant who won’t cause trouble. Her life is simple, and she wants to keep it that way. Ryder Duffy is an auto mechanic who dreams of owning a custom car shop. For now, he’s working at his friend’s family-owned auto shop in Ortonville. Ryder is looking for an apartment nearby, and Charlie’s loft sounds like the perfect place. At the interview, Charlie immediately recognizes Ryder since he works across the street from the bookshop. However, he’s not the kind of tenant she’s seeking. He’s too young and good looking, which only spells trouble. Yet, somehow, she ends up handing him the keys. Charlie’s sister, Claire, also works at the bookstore and gushes over the hot guys who work across the street. When Ryder moves into Charlie’s apartment, Claire is determined to get to know them, and especially Ryder’s friend, Levi. Charlie is intent on keeping a polite distance from her tenant, but when Ryder asks her to help him set up Levi and Claire, she agrees. The next thing she knows, the four of them are going on double dates! As Charlie and Ryder become closer, their age gap still worries her. Is this just a fling or do they have a chance at forever? It’s Only Love is perfect for readers who enjoy a fun and sexy contemporary romance.
