Grumpy Lumberjack's Secret (Small Town Grumpy Sunshine #1)

She’s the sunshine kindergarten teacher.
He’s the grumpy ex-Army lumberjack no one in town dares look in the eye.
And the little girl holding her hand has HIS eyes.

Sawyer Cole is six-foot-four of battle-scarred, broad-shouldered, don’t-touch-me fury. He runs the sawmill. He doesn’t smile. He drinks his coffee black, builds furniture in his cabin at midnight, and the last man who crossed him left town with a broken jaw and a lesson.

Chloe Matthews is the only woman who ever made him soft. Seven years ago she slipped out of his bed and disappeared. Now she’s back — broke, divorced, and hiding a five-year-old daughter with green eyes that stop Sawyer’s heart cold.
He does the math. His fists clench. His voice drops to a growl that makes her knees buckle.
