From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes Chapel Bend, an enemies to lovers, small town romance in her beloved series, Huckleberry Bay!
There's a fine line between love and hate.
In Huckleberry Bay, Oregon, everyone knows that when it comes to Juniper "June" Snow - what you see is what you get. When you hire her construction company to do a job, it's done right, on time, and on budget. When she's your friend, she's a ride-or-die who will support you no matter what. And when you're her enemy...well, she can hold a grudge.
And she's never forgotten how the tall, dark, and delicious Apollo Winchester hurt her so many years ago.
In a small town, it's impossible to ignore someone who greets you with a death glare every time you meet. Apollo can't recall why June hates him, but it doesn't stop him from stirring her up every chance he gets. There's something about her stubborn, "don't mess with me" attitude that keeps him coming back for more. But June is his sister's best friend and permanently on the "off-limits" list.
June puts aside her war with Apollo and hires him to work on her most important project, the renovation of a chapel into her dream home. She wants the best...and Apollo is the best . . . on the job site and in her bed. He won't turn down the chance to spend more time with June, especially when it's clear that she wants him as much as she hates him. Proximity leads to opportunity, and opportunity leads to steamy times between the sheets.
But a mystery threatens June and Apollo will protect her and their growing connection, no matter the cost.

What a great addition to this series. June and Apollo just seem to click. They have history, they have chemistry and they both have that tough as nails attitude toward life. The author brings her veritable wit and best friends feel to the writing. You will fall in love with this second chance romance.
June and Apollo grew up together. June has always crushed on him but he broke her heart. I LOVED that she was open about it and that Apollo worked so hard to gain her trust again. I also loved that they thought htey were fooling their friends but everyone could see the changes they were making.
Love the setting and the small town feel of the story. There is a little bit of drama but for the most part, the story-- and the ghosts --bring a wonderful feel good story for readers to enjoy.
I hope we get to visit this small seaside town again. I would love to catch up with the 6 friends in the future.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
