Love in Translation: A Spicy Opposites Attract Forced Proximity Romance
Joss Wood
A burnt-out homebody and an adrenaline junkie are forced to share her grandmother's hideaway — and a bed.
Description
This could be their greatest adventure yet... A stressed-out translator on the brink of a meltdown and a thrill seeker with a serious case of wanderlust find love outside their comfort zones. Up until a few months ago, Rheo Whitlock had it all. Stability, self-confidence and a safe job as an interpreter for the United Nations... It was the predictable sort of existence she, as a dedicated homebody, had always dreamed of--the security she'd needed thanks to her nomadic #vanlife upbringing. But ever since an unfortunate "hot mic" moment threw her career into a tailspin, she's been struggling--really struggling--with fear, anxiety and uncertainty. A calculated escape is in order, and Rheo knows just the place: her grandmother's secluded hideaway in the breathtaking town of Gilmartin. Except she won't be alone, thanks to a random twist of fate... Fletcher Wright lives for adrenaline, always chasing the next high. So when he learns he'll have to share his rental accommodations with Rheo--a stranger, basically--he simply chalks it up to another challenge. It doesn't hurt that there's an immediate attraction between them, which neither can explain. Before long, they're not just sharing a house and new experiences--they're sharing a bed. But when it's time for Fletcher to move on to the next adventure, he and Rheo will both have to decide--are they ready to take the biggest risk of all? From showing up to glowing up, the characters in Afterglow Books are on the path to leading their best lives and finding sizzling romance along the way. Don't miss any of these other fun titles...
