Chance Encounter by Lea Coll

It’s been years since I last saw Ethan. I never imagined the muscular, tattooed man he’d grow up to be. But no matter how hot he was, I had to resist the temptation he presented.
I needed to focus on making my boutique a success for my son and me.
Any desire I felt for him quickly shifted to annoyance as he began targeting my shop. He claimed it was a cluttered eye sore driving customers away from his hardware store. I couldn’t understand why he was so bitter toward me. For the sake of our businesses, and my heart, could we find a way to get along, or would our rivalry turn into an all-out war?
