Second Song (The Parent App #4)

Authors have two favorite words. The End.
He spent the winter reading every one of her love stories. She's been listening to his heartbreak in her favorite three-chord country song for years — long before he showed up behind the bar at the local watering hole.

Seraphina Sinclair has written sixty-one romance novels. All those happily-ever-afters for her characters—and never one for herself.

In real life she's been doing just fine on her own, thank you very much, raising her son in their cliffside home above the Pacific and leaving her heart safely out of the equation. Until her son asks the brooding, beautiful bartender for guitar lessons, and suddenly Hunter Sloan is in her house every Thursday at four-thirty, and Seraphina's muses are working overtime. The man is an absolute problem.

Hunter Sloan came to Willet Cove to disappear. After a bitter divorce, he gave up Nashville and took a job behind the bar at the local pub, telling himself a quieter life was what he needed. He was supposed to heal, write some songs, and figure out what came next. He wasn't supposed to fall for a woman who writes romances for a living and hasn't let anyone close in years. He definitely wasn't supposed to spend an entire winter reading all sixty of her novels alone in a cottage by the sea.

For a year they've been circling each other, neither of them brave enough to close the distance.

Luckily, Seraphina's son and his band of determined teenage matchmakers have other ideas.

The fourth book in the beloved Parent App series, Second Song is a slow-burn, small-town romance about two people who found each other's art before they found each other — and what happens when you fall for the man who wrote your favorite song.

Turns out Seraphina's two favorite words might not be The End after all. They might just be The Beginning.
