Never Too Late (Appleby #1)

Life in a pretty English village isn’t always a bed of roses.

Molly King learns this the hard way when her boyfriend returns newly engaged, and her childhood home is sold out from beneath her. Now she’s heartbroken, homeless, and desperate to keep herself and her grandmother off the streets. But her troubles have only just begun.

Billionaire Jake Hennessy has vowed to never love again. His fiancée’s mysterious death left him shattered, and now the media fallout has forced him into hiding. Little Appleby village was meant to be his escape, somewhere to heal and cement the final walls around his heart, but instead he finds dangerous temptation there in the shape of a golden beauty with sweet innocence in her smile.

But once bitten, now twice shy, Jake is determined to win this battle of feelings between him and Molly. He already owns her home, and now he’s determined to have her… on his terms.

Molly though is determined to resist him. Because she knows, when Jake’s done with her, he’ll have demolished not just her home, but her tender heart too. Trouble is, he’s just too damn irresistible.
