Blurb<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A Sexy, <\/strong>Small town,\u00a0<\/strong>Enemies to Lovers, Brother\u2019s Best Friend\u00a0<\/strong>romance from\u00a0<\/strong>USA Today<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Bestselling Author Willow Aster<\/strong><\/p>\n

Camden Whitman has always been in my life. I met him when I was five and he was seven, but when he and my brother became best friends, I became nothing more than the pesky little sister he didn\u2019t want around.<\/p>\n

There was a period of time when I thought I felt a connection between us, but he shut that down faster than I could blink. Fast forward to adulthood years later, and here I am, still the annoying little sister he can\u2019t stand.<\/p>\n

Now there\u2019s one difference:\u00a0I want nothing to do with him.<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u2019m happy running The Kitty-Corner Cafe in my small town of Windy Harbor, Minnesota, and love living in my little slice of paradise on Lake Superior\u2026until Camden decides to move here and open up a new restaurant.<\/p>\n

Who cares if he\u2019s a well-known chef who can prepare the most delectable food? He will\u00a0never<\/em>\u00a0hear that from me. He\u2019s wrecked my small-town, stress-free bubble and filled it with his abrasive comments and intrusive looks.<\/p>\n

But then the unexpected happens. One night, when both of our walls are down, I see a glimpse of something other than distaste in his eyes. And it has me wondering if I\u2019ve misjudged the man that has always gotten under my skin.<\/p>\n

When those boundaries are crossed, there\u2019s no turning back. Camden is on a mission and will do whatever it takes to make me his\u2026<\/p>\n

What It Takes<\/em>\u00a0is book two in the interconnected, standalone\u00a0Windy Harbor<\/em>\u00a0series.<\/p>\n
