Things We Never Got Over – Knockemout, Book 1

Description

Things We Never Got Over

Naomi Witt, in her 30s, abruptly leaves her wedding to help her estranged twin sister in Knockemout, Virginia—a rough-around-the-edges small town. There, she unexpectedly inherits custody of her 11-year-old niece, Waylay. With no car, job, or plan, Naomi is stranded and vulnerable.

Enter Knox Morgan—a brooding, rugged local barber-bar tender in his 40s. Initially rude and standoffish, he gradually steps up to help Naomi with housing, work, and fitting into a town that’s as protective as it is messy. Their dynamic evolves across slow-building sexual tension and reluctant reliance. The romance is fueled by plenty of snarky banter, found-family bonds, and bonus drama—a mystery element involving Naomi’s painful twin and wayward family triggers.

By the end, the couple is paired through custody, danger, and undeniable attraction—and the stakes force them to evolve far beyond their comfort zones.
