Misbehaving With Minotaurs

Catherine runs the Annabelle Inn in the town of Ever, and she has set herself one rule for the week ahead: don't engage. Manorin Longhorn, a celebrity skyball star, has come to interview for a coaching position. He is also the minotaur she dated centuries ago, and the man whose heart she broke when she left him.

Dating someone who might become an employee would be wildly inappropriate. Still, Nor is staying at her inn, right under her nose, and the pull between them has not faded. Catherine agrees to a no-strings arrangement with one condition: fun, and no feelings.

The Nor she meets now is older and more sure of himself, and he takes charge in a way she finds hard to refuse. What begins as a secret fling slowly turns into something close to real romance. The clock is against them, though. Ever is not the only town trying to hire him, and each night together brings his departure closer.

When Nor asks for a true second chance, Catherine has to decide whether to risk her heart on him again.

This is a second-chance romance in a small-town monster setting, with an open-door, steamy tone and a guaranteed happy ending. It is the eighth and final book in the Haven Ever After series.
