Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score
Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon.
Naomi’s escape from her wedding was not just an act of defiance; it was a courageous journey to rescue her estranged twin in Knockemout, Virginiaβa town where conflicts are settled in the time-honored tradition of fists and beer, usually in that precise order.
Unfortunately for Naomi, her wicked twin remains unchanged. After absconding with Naomi’s car and money, Tina leaves her with an unexpected giftβthe niece Naomi never knew existed. Now stranded in town without a vehicle, job, plan, or a place to call home, Naomi must care for an 11-year-old girl who seems wise beyond her years.
Knox, who avoids complications and high-maintenance women, especially those of the romantic variety, feels compelled to lend a hand after witnessing Naomi’s life collapse before his eyes. His intention is simple: assist her in resolving her predicament and then retreat to his peaceful, solitary existence.
However, their plans take an unforeseen turn as the trouble they encounter escalates into genuine danger, leaving Knox with no choice but to stay by Naomi’s side until the threat is vanquished.
