Grin and Beard It

Sienna Diaz is a plus-sized comedian beloved in Hollywood. She has come to the Great Smoky Mountains to work on a film, and she cannot find her way around Tennessee's back roads.

Time and again, Park Ranger Jethro Winston turns up to rescue her. He is ridiculously handsome and unshakably charming, and their roadside meetings spark a chemistry neither of them planned for. The tone stays funny and warm.

This is a contemporary slow-burn romance. The banter is witty, the first impressions are mismatched, and real heat sits under the humor. Sienna can play romance for a camera with ease, but Jethro's unhurried kindness is genuine, and that is another matter entirely.

It is the second book in Penny Reid's Winston Brothers series and follows the romance of the eldest Winston brother. It works as a standalone, full-length novel, and each book in the series goes back to the small town of Green Valley, Tennessee.
