Molly"s a successful chef who"s just escaped a tumultuous marriage with the clothes on her back and enough money to buy an old food truck. She returns to her hometown of Austin for a fresh start and discovers the ruined remains of Joe Jensen, her girlhood crush.

Joe led a charmed life until the tragic night he lost it all. Once a master carpenter, he"s now part of a restoration crew, when he isn"t too hungover to crawl out of bed. He exists in a booze-fueled haze of one night stands, barroom brawls, and working until he drops.

Then Molly Hildebrandt shows up at the job site in a food truck as red as her glossy lipstick. She"s no longer the jailbait girl who used to trail after him, but she"s still the little sister of his best friends, Mason and Mac. Molly"s a splash of ice water to Joe"s whisky-addled heart, and as much as he hates the idea of screwing up his friendship with the twins, he can"t keep his hands to himself.

Saddle up for The Carved Hearts Series, a funny, tear-jerking, swoon-worthy tale of a tattooed spitfire and her not-so-average Joe.
