The Wrong Mr. Right

Nearly thirty and a lifelong romance reader who has never had a love story of her own, a small-town bookseller decides it is time to become bolder. Her store is struggling, and so is her confidence. She asks Wyatt Rhodes, a laid-back local surfer with a reputation for avoiding commitment, to coach her.

Wyatt's lessons are not the makeover she expected. He takes her surfing, sends her on awkward dates and helps her rethink the shop, and his aim is to bring her out of her shell rather than turn her into someone else. As the arrangement turns into friendship and then something more serious, one problem remains: he is leaving town and she is staying.

The Wrong Mr. Right is a spicy, small-town, friends-to-lovers romantic comedy and the second book in Stephanie Archer's Queen's Cove series. The publisher says it can be read as a standalone.
