A sexy, small-town, grumpy-sunshine romance by bestselling author Stacy Travis

Ever heard the one about the rom-com princess who gets swept off her feet by her fake fiancé?

Yeah, that’s not my story.

I’m an actress whose reputation is currently circling the drain, thanks to a string of public relationship disasters. All I want is to adopt a baby and leave my tabloid trainwreck days behind me.

When the adoption agency doubts my ability to provide a stable home life, I agree to a fake engagement with a guy who screamed “PR-approved.”

Easy enough—until Archer Corbett blows it all to pieces.

He’s a broody, hockey-playing winemaker who makes grumbling an art form. He also hates my fake fiancé—pretty sure “douchebag” was in there somewhere—and doesn’t care who knows it. But when Archer rescues me on the side of the road and keeps me safe, I discover there’s more under his scowl than grunts and muscles.

A lot more.

Turns out, Archer has a guarded heart, a fierce loyalty to his family, and a self-sacrificing streak a mile wide. He’s also infuriatingly hot—and impossible to resist. One stolen kiss turns into carwash-steamy nights and a bond I didn’t see coming. But there’s a problem: he doesn’t want kids, and I can’t imagine a life without them.

Our lives don’t fit together. Our dreams are miles apart. But what if Archer’s exactly what I need to rewrite my story? And what if I’m the one to thaw his frozen heart?

If only this were a movie, I might get the happily ever after I’ve always wanted.

Love You Always is a standalone romance with a HEA, and it's the anticipated final book in the Buttercup Hill series.
