Adored by Burke

She’s a ray of sunshine. He’s a gruff giant. Can these opposites attract? Maple Aster has just moved to this tiny Connecticut town to open her candy store. So far, things aren’t going well. Her roommate ran off with her half of the rent and now Maple is stuck living out of the back of the shop. She’s still looking on the bright side, though. At least she has her store and the grumpy piece of eye candy next door to keep her spirits up. Burke Masters is the town loner. He moved here a few years ago after his mom passed away and he needed a fresh start. He runs the town hardware store, fixing up properties on the side. He likes being left alone. That is, until Maple moves in next door. 

One look and he knows that he’s screwed but nothing can keep him from wanting her. Will he be able to convince her that he’s willing to be sweet—at least to her?
