A Small Town, Rivals to Lovers, Workplace Romance by New York Times Bestselling Author, Samantha Chase
She's the quiet, small town girl who gets along with everyone. Except him.
He's the new guy in town who's determined to turn her world upside down.
All Chloe Donovan ever wanted was to teach kindergarten and live a simple life in Sweetbriar Ridge. Until she decides she wants more in her life. Like maybe a good man to share her quiet life. But when she meets Tanner Westyn, Sweetbriar Ridge's biggest ego-maniac and newest kindergarten teacher, she can't help but feel unsettled with all the new changes happening around her town. Especially the unexpected feelings Tanner sparks in her.
A former champion Alpine skier, Tanner loves to compete–in all aspects of his life. But with his skiing career behind him, he's ready to tackle the next phase of his life–teaching. When he lands in Sweetbriar Ridge, a town with a brand-new ski resort, he looks forward to quiet days on the slopes. The one thing he didn't anticipate is how much his competitive nature would rub his new neighbors and colleagues–especially Chloe–the wrong way. What started as a schoolroom challenge with Chloe quickly snowballed into something else outside the school walls.
Everything about Tanner annoyed, frustrated, and intrigued Chloe. But when their heated banter evolves into looks of longing and a connection that can't be denied, she starts to question if they could even have a future together. But if Tanner doesn't want to lose Chloe, he will have to accept that coming in second place means more when the person you love takes the win.
