Small town. Big secrets. And one ridiculously hot mistake she doesn’t regret.

Everyone in the smalltown of Red Bridge, Vermont, knows Tad Hanson, the hot sheep farmer who can’t control his flock. He doesn’t believe in forever, but he’ll be the best time you’ve ever had—right now. What they don’t know is why.

He’s too charming, too good with that addicting smile of his, too committed to keeping his dark past buried, and too stubborn to imagine his life could be any other way.

Until a snowstorm—and one beautiful woman—send his carefully controlled world spinning.

Successful art director Beatrice “Breezy” Bishop thought she had life figured out—until her father gave her the middle finger from the grave and left the family galleries she built to her entitled younger brother. With nothing left in New York but resentment and regret, she temporarily heads to Red Bridge, looking for space to breathe.

Instead, she finds a sexy, flirty, secret fling with Tad, and a rivalry with the editor of Red Bridge’s newspaper. It’s chaotic, but it’s the happiest she’s ever been.

But secrets never stay secrets for long, and when hearts get involved—and the universe clearly has other plans—walking away isn’t as easy as they thought.




Breezy + Tad

We met them both in the previous books.
Tad is the very sexy and pretty talent-free sheep farmer with a mysterious sad past.
Breezy is Bennett's older sister. She used to run the family's art gallery empire. But after her dad died, he left everything to their younger Hollywood star brother.
Not knowing what to do with her empty life now as an almost  40 year old single woman with no job, she leaves New York and moves in with Bennett and his little family in Red Bridge, Vermont.
Why not start a little something with the most eligible single guy in town... she's not staying anyway, right?


Finally Breezy and Tad's story!
So adorable.
And funny and sparky and wintery and sheepy and so much more!
I just adore those cute small town romances.
We also get some very heartbreaking moments. I cried a lot!
We all know that Breezy's niece died two years ago, but Tad has some sad things in his past too.
But we love watching them help each other heal and start a new chapter in their lives ... even though Tad might not be ready yet and Breezy isn't really looking for anything serious.
I loved reading this. 
I loved the family and small town moments.
Brothers Bennett, Logan and Randy, niece Autumn, the sheep, the 'paparazzi'. Just so many amazing moments in this book.
Wouldn't mind seeing this series on TV one day.

WHERE I SHOULD'VE BEEN was a funny + adorable + heartbreaking small-town romance! Run to your nearest book dealer for your own Tad - this one is mine!
