Stay Right Here

Extra cheese with a side of Oliver, please.​

Thanks to my ex, I’m finally going to take that much needed vacation.

My job doesn’t require an office. Top on my list for this getaway: the beach.

Not on the list: the H-O-T owner of the pizzeria.

My plans were easy. Write, soak up the sun, and drink a few of those girlie drinks with the little umbrella and a couple of cherries.

Then Oliver spun the pizza dough and flashed those turquoise eyes in my direction and I was lost.

Maybe it’s time for a new plan…

Beachside Tavern is a steamy romantic comedy short story full of delicious food and so many laughs.

Bonus inside: two irresistible recipes.
