My First Kiss by Isla Drake

Tips for dating in a small town:
1. Don’t.
2. Seriously. It’s not worth it.
3. Resign yourself to the idea of dying alone. (Maybe get a cat?)
4. Never, ever admit you have a crush on the hot, single dad down the street.
Harlow has spent her life learning to be as fiercely independent as possible. If she needs something, she finds a way to get it. If something breaks, she learns to fix it. Life has taught her that she can only rely on herself. And every man she’s ever dated has helped prove that point by lying or cheating. That’s why she’s sworn off men and is focused solely on making her salon a success in the tiny town she grew up in.
But when an incident involving a burst pipe and one of Peach Tree’s most prominent citizens threatens her livelihood, Harlow knows she needs to fix the problem fast. If she wants to save her business, she’s going to have to hire someone. There’s just one other problem: the only person available to repair the broken pipe on short notice is the one person she’s vowed to avoid.
Lincoln Prescott isn’t just the hottest available man in Peach Tree. He’s also the guy Harlow has secretly crushed on since grade school, the guy who didn’t know she existed in high school, and the man she still imagines kissing, all these years later. Lucky for her, she’s sworn off men.
But resisting Linc proves more difficult than she expected, especially when he keeps showing up for her again and again. When his teasing smiles and lingering looks turn into more, Harlow wonders if maybe she was wrong to write off all men.
Has she finally found one who’s worth her trust?
