Claimed by the Contractor

He’s as gruff as they come, but nobody does a tongue and groove like Tanner…

Beth
I’ll admit I’ve been in a rut.
Busy with my mom passing away, leaving my childhood home in shambles hasn’t left much time for dating.
Not that I have a long line of suitors waiting for me.
I hired a contractor to help me get out from under this mess of a house.
But I was not expecting Tanner.
The man that shows up at my door is tall, blonde, and handsome.
He is a total stud. Pun intended.
Unfortunately, he has the personality of plywood, and it’s like pulling nails to get a word out of him.

Tanner
I’m not going to get any awards for congeniality. I’m grumpy, and I know it.
Fortunately, I’m paid for my skills, not my attitude.
I am far more comfortable around sawdust and screws than I am around people.
Until I meet Beth
At first, she’s so chatty she gives me a headache… yet, she also makes me ache further south.
Like a ray of sunshine, she lights me up.
She is everything I’m not, and that makes her irresistible.
Afraid of commitment and getting burned again, I hold back.
All I know is that I have an overwhelming urge to claim her as my own

If you like steamy small-town instalove, grumpy sunshine romance and blue-collar workers that go all in for smart, sassy, curvy girls, you are going to love meeting Beth and Tanner in Claimed by the Contractor.
