A surprise reunion, a magical house… and a love that feels just right.
I came back to Enchanted Hollow to enjoy the St. Patrick’s Day festivities—not to find myself stuck in a vacation rental with Weston Reilly, flirty tight end and the last person I expected to see again.
The first time we met at Holly and Cade’s wedding, I wasn’t impressed. He, on the other hand, was annoyingly fascinated. Fast forward a few months, and thanks to a booking mix-up (and a house that seems to have a mind of its own), I quite literally land on top of him.
Weston’s recovering from a torn ACL, testing limits, and—somehow—becoming my accidental roommate. I’m hiding from the mess of my own life, trying to keep my sisters from finding out my engagement fell apart. When my ex calls and Weston jumps in, claiming to be my boyfriend, something shifts. The more time we spend together at the Shamrock Shuffle—Enchanted Hollow’s St. Patricks’s Day festival—it’s obvious how different we are. Weston is spontaneous chaos and I much prefer to stick to the plans.
It’s just a misunderstanding. A temporary arrangement. A little magic-fueled chaos.
But between the house playing love songs, the town’s uncanny way of nudging people together, and the way Weston looks at me when he thinks I won’t notice… maybe living in the moment isn’t so bad after all.
I never expected Weston to fit ‘just right’ in my life... and neither did he.
The Lucky One is a closed door, kisses only, magical retelling of Goldilocks. This is a standalone novella, but is best enjoyed if read in the published reading order:
