About this listen
Cosmopolitan Magazine calls Addison's books, "...easy, frothy fun!"
My name is Lexy Maxfield (reluctant food critic, accidental jobless wonder, and occasional Range Rover enthusiast).
Falling in love with your ex is like trying to unburn toast—it’s messy, pointless, and leaves you wondering why you ever bothered with bread in the first place. Yet here I am, back in Hollow Brook, jobless, broke, and staring down Axel Collins, the human equivalent of a perfectly toasted bagel. Too bad he also happens to be the guy who torched my heart years ago.
Now, thanks to a cosmic joke involving my runaway mouth, an elderly woman’s dog, and a viral video (don’t ask), I’ve become the Internet’s newest villain and lost the one thing I had going for me: my career. Axel, of all people, swoops in with a job offer that involves me slinging drinks at his bar—because clearly, working for my ex is the best way to rebuild my shattered dignity.
But Axel isn’t playing fair. Between his infuriating smirk, that annoyingly perfect gray suit, and a sudden tendency to show up everywhere, I can’t seem to shake him—or the sparks that reignite every time we’re within three feet of each other.
I don’t want to fall for Axel again. Really, I don’t. But with meddling friends, nosy neighbors, and one very judgmental French bulldog in the mix, it’s starting to feel like fate is less about destiny and more about sheer stubbornness.
Love might not be on my to-do list, but surviving Axel Collins? That’s a challenge I can’t resist.
From NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Addison Moore comes a SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE.
Fair warning: Hilarity up ahead!
Romantic Comedy *STANDALONE*
Meet Axel Collins… I’ve had my fair share of women. But I don’t do relationships—not since Lex, not after Lex. Lex comes barreling into my world like a hurricane, destroying everything in her path as she makes her way back into my life—she never did leave my heart. No, now that Lex is back I’m not letting her go. She’s back and this time I’m determined to keep it that way.
