Bearded, bad-boy barber Knox prefers to live his life the way he takes his coffee: Alone. Unless you count his basset hound, Waylon. Knox doesn''t tolerate drama, even when it comes in the form of a stranded runaway bride. Naomi wasn''t just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her estranged twin to Knockemout, Virginia, a rough-around-the-edges town where disputes are settled the old-fashioned way . . . with fists and beer. Usually in that order. Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn''t changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi''s car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected. The niece Naomi didn''t know she had. Now she''s stuck in town with no car, no job, no plan, and no home with an 11-year-old going on thirty to take care of. There''s a reason Knox doesn''t do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi''s life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into new trouble he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life. At least, that''s the plan until the trouble turns to real danger.

Welcome back to Knockemout, Virginia. The brand new novel from Lucy Score, following her global bestseller: Things We Never Got Over. Nash Morgan was always known as the good Morgan brother, with a smile and a wink for everyone. But now, this chief of police is recovering from being shot and his Southern charm has been overshadowed by panic attacks and nightmares. He feels like a broody shell of the man he once was. Nash isn''t about to let anyone in his life know he''s struggling. But his new next-door neighbour, smart and sexy Lina, sees his shadows. As a rule, she''s not a fan of physical contact unless she initiates it, but for some reason Nash''s touch is different. He feels it too. The physical connection between them is incendiary, grounding him and making her wonder if exploring it is worth the risk. Too bad Lina''s got secrets of her own, and if Nash finds out the real reason she''s in town, he''ll never forgive her. Besides, she doesn''t do relationships. Ever. A hot, short-term fling with a local cop? Absolutely. Sign her up. A relationship with a man who expects her to plant roots? No freaking way. Once she gets what she''s after, she has no intention of sticking around. But Knockemout has a way of getting under people''s skin. And once Nash decides to make Lina his, he''s not about to be dissuaded . . . even if it means facing the danger that nearly killed him.

I absolutely loved the humor but even more I loved the depth of emotion as these characters grew and learned from their mistakes>
