About the Book
For years, Sean O’Dell has hidden his past as a Hollywood
heartthrob from everyone at the Sweet Salvation Brewery. However, the arrival
of nosey efficiency expert Natalie Sweet threatens the status quo. It doesn’t
help that with her glasses, buttoned-up sweaters and always pulled-back hair
that she’s uncovered one secret already: His attraction for hot librarian
types.
Natalie has had enough of the strong-and-silent Sean
submarining her efforts to change the brewery for the better. She’s ready to do
whatever it takes to make her vision a reality, even if that means taking down
the pig-headed and too-hot-for-his-own-good brewmaster.
Sizzling attraction battles stubborn determination as
Natalie and Sean go head to head in a battle that’s anything but business as
usual.

Excerpt
The walk–in cooler stood twenty feet away.
So frickin’ close that Sean O’Dell could practically smell
the flowery green hops and feel them crumble in his palms.
The weight on his chest eased with each step. He was going
to close out the day without having yet another conversation with Natalie about
lean manufacturing or whatever the hell system the
people at Toyota invented. She’d been hounding him all day
to sit down with her and go over her crazy–ass plans to streamline the brewery
process. As if the craft and creativity of making beer could be distilled down
to numbers on a spreadsheet. The woman was as annoyingly persistent as she was
hot—both were a distraction he didn’t need in his life right now, not with the
Southeast Brewers Invitational coming up.
But for the next thirteen hours, he wouldn’t have to hear
any of her harebrained recommendations. He reached for the cooler’s door handle
and turned it, noticing as he did so that it wasn’t latched.
He yanked open the door before his brain processed the ants
dancing up his spine.
The motion triggered the cooler’s sensor activated overhead
lights. His gut dipped and he
clenched his jaw.
Natalie stood shivering on the other side of the cooler’s
threshold, clutching her damn clipboard to her chest.
He stopped cold. “What in the hell are you doing here?”
“Waiting for you in your favorite hiding spot.” Her teeth
chattered. “Do you really think I don’t
know your secrets?”
God knew exactly how long she’d been lying in wait for him,
but it was enough time for her button nose to turn red and her glasses to frost
over. His gaze slid to the right. The temperature gage read twenty–six.
A smarter man would have shut the door and walked away, let
her deal with the consequences of
spending time in the Sweet Salvation Brewery’s cooler
without a coat. But no one—from his asshole of a father to his
always–hungry–for–more agent to his on–set teachers—had ever accused him of
having an overabundance of brains.
Instead, he whipped off his thick hoodie and pulled it over
her head. Not bothering to get her arms through the sleeves, he wrapped her up—
clipboard and all—inside its fleece warmth. The hood drooped over her head,
covering everything down to her nose. Before she could squeak out a noise over
the chattering of her teeth, he wrapped an arm around her narrow waist and
tossed her over one shoulder like a sack of grain. Her cold seeped into him,
pouring over his body and making him shiver.
“P–p–put me down.” She made a halfhearted attempt to wriggle
free.
“No.” He spun around and kicked the cooler door shut with
his boot heel.
“This is unseemly.”
Her body may be half a degree away from being a snow cone,
but holding her like this had him
running a few degrees warmer. “Yep.”
“You can’t just carry me around like this,” Natalie huffed
against his lower back. “I’m your
boss.”
“I can and you are.” But he was bound to forget that last
part if she kept squirming against him. Hell, he couldn’t seem to remember that
fact while he was alone at night staring at his bedroom ceiling and imagining
how those damn little buttons would open under his touch.

About the Author
Avery Flynn has three slightly-wild children, loves a
hockey-addicted husband and is desperately hoping someone invents the coffee IV
drip.
She fell in love with romance while reading Johanna
Lindsey’s Mallory books. It wasn’t long before Avery had read through all the
romance offerings at her local library. Needing a romance fix, she turned to
Harlequin’s four books a month home delivery service to ease the withdrawal
symptoms. That worked for a short time, but it wasn’t long before the local
book stores’ staffs knew her by name.
Avery was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to
always be both. She loves to write about smartass alpha heroes who are as good
with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her heroines
are feisty, fierce and fantastic. Brainy and brave, these ladies know how to
stand on their own two feet and knock the bad guys off theirs.
