Violet Aches for Blake by Emily Bruce

Violet
Violet Stone was just your average run-of-the mill 30-year-old. Okay, so she hadn’t found her one true love yet, but 30 was the new 20, right? And, it’s not like she lived in a city where there were eligible men in abundance.
In a small town like Encounter Bay, you only had a few to choose from. So, she may have gotten her heart broken at age 17 and never fully recovered, but it wasn’t like she still had feelings for him. Okay, fine! So, she stalked his social media accounts every chance she got! But it’s not every day that someone you used to know becomes famous! And it didn’t matter that he happened to be your best friend’s big brother, it’s not like he was coming back here ever. She could keep her desperate crush a secret forever, right?

Blake
Blake Wilson was living the dream. At least that’s what the tabloids wrote, at 35 Blake had made it big in Hollywood, so big that he could no longer go grocery shopping without the tabloids speculating about what he was doing with all that toilet paper. Famous people sh*t too, damn it! After being in Hollywood for so long, Blake made a bold decision. He was moving home. Back to Encounter Bay, away from the paparazzi, and back (fingers crossed) into the arms of the only girl that made his heart beat faster. Over the years Blake had measured every woman against his twerp little sister’s best friend. There was just something about Violet. He just hoped that she could forgive him for what happened all those years ago…
