Falling for You

When serious, logical Owen Miller walks into my cafe after the worst break-up in the history of public, mortifying break-ups, I can only think of one thing to do… so I kiss him.Is it a mistake? Yes. Do I regret it? Not really. Sure, I know friends aren't supposed to kiss. And sourdough bakers with designs on a San Francisco bread empire aren't supposed to manhandle their customers.It's a rebound, pure and simple. We both know it. And who says we can't be the first pair of friends with benefits to make it work? Or maybe it will be the disaster I should have seen coming. Yes, definitely the latter. Except that after weekends in the wine country and a tour of my bread kitchen that's all about his hot loaf, I find that the funny, sensitive, smoking hot guy is everything I've ever wanted in a soulmate. What I'm falling in love with my rebound guy? Stacy Travis writes contemporary romance novels with strong female characters and the men who love them for their badassery.

She fuels her writing with coffee, pretzels, and prodigious amounts of cheese. When she's not on a deadline, she's in running shoes complaining that all roads seem to go uphill. Or on the couch with a margarita. Or fangirling at a soccer game.

Stacy lives in Los Angeles with her husband, two sons and a poorly-trained rescue dog who hoards socks.
