Grumpy Single Dad by Lena Little

A Grumpy meets Sunshine, insta-everything romance.

A sweet slice-of-life story that will warm your heart and refuel your faith in the spirit of small towns, like Mercy. Big storms, crazy-delicious ice cream, under-blanket fumbling in the dark and a chance for a two-scoop father/daughter combo to become a wholesome family unit. Can Mariah become their cherry-on-top?

Mariah

As the storms continue to beat down our little town, I struggle to keep the lights and freezers on in my ice cream shop.

A father and daughter dash in right before closing to get out of the rain. The grumpy duo is going through a lot, but I’m happy to be their shelter from the storm.

Dallas and his daughter, Frankie, end up melting my heart faster than my ice cream melts after the power goes out.

They quickly become the cherry on top of this semi-sweet life of mine. It’s shocking to me that these two are the missing ingredients to my day. Even more surprising is that I’m adding a new flavor to their two-scoop family. We blend together better than a milkshake and french fries. Yet, Dallas’s dismal disposition is harder to chip away at than I thought.

However, with a sprinkle of love and a drizzle of chocolate, we come together in more ways than one.

Creating an instant family has its challenges, but I hope our bond is strong enough to help us stick together better than a banana split on a hot day.

This is a short, steamy, small town, grumpy/sunshine insta-everything romance.

Each book in the series can be read as a standalone but characters recur in some stories.

No OM / OW drama and no cliffhangers.No ddlg. No virgins. No man-whores. Always a sweet HEA!
