ⓘ About Lainey Davis
She writes contemporary, steamy love stories with strong heroines, grouchy heroes, enough fiascoes, and happily ever afters. When his family engineering firm ships him off to investigate a sinkhole at the house of a client, he feels a tremor in the foundation of his own carefully calculated world. Her name’s Nicole Kennedy. She is crass and loud, and doesn’t have any time for nonsense. She definitely doesn’t have any time for some mysterious trench that’s swallowing her yard. To make things worse, this grouchy engineer that shows up to fix it is the exact same jerk she’s being forced to run beside during the corporate relay race that her boss insisted that she run in. Somewhere between jogging and poring over the geotechnical engineering plans, Zack and Nicole feel the earth begin to move.
