The Aussie Next Door (Patterson's Bluff Book 1)

A sweet, sexy read, featuring a couple that feels both true-to-life and aspirational. American Angie Donovan has never wanted much.

When you grow up getting bounced from foster home to foster home, you learn not to become attached to anything, anyone, or any place.

But it only took her two days to fall in love with Australia.

With her visa clock ticking, surely she can fall in love with an Australian—and get hitched—in two months.

Especially if he’s as hot and funny as her next-door neighbor… Jace Walters has never wanted much—except a bathroom he didn’t have to share.

The last cookie all to himself.

And solitude.

But when you grow up in a family of seven, you can kiss those things goodbye.

He’s finally living alone and working on his syndicated comic strip in privacy.

Sure, his American neighbor is distractingly sexy and annoyingly nosy, but she’ll be gone in a few months... Except now she’s determined to find her perfect match by checking out every eligible male in the town, and her choices are even more distracting.

So why does it suddenly feel like he—and his obnoxious tight-knit family, and even these two wayward dogs—could be exactly what she needs?
