Meet Hate
(Winter Falls ~ Dempsey Sisters Book 4)

Amazon / B&N / BB

 

Peace isn’t just his name. It’s his calling. The last thing he needs is a tempting woman with troublemaker written all over her strolling into his small town.

I have no idea what I did to Peace but the man hates me with every breath of his being. Too bad my body lights up like a freaking Christmas tree whenever he struts by wearing his police uniform that hugs his thighs and molds to his ass.

Good thing I have no time for romance since a troublemaker should never get involved with a cop. Even if she is a reformed troublemaker.

Instead, I’m focusing all my energy on convincing my family to forgive me for my past transgressions, because I am not that person anymore.

But Peace isn’t leaving me alone. Of freaking course not. He’s literally blocking me from acquiring the yoga studio in Winter Falls.

I got this. I can convince him I’m not about to bring trouble to this adorably quirky small town.

But somehow instead of proving what a great asset I’ll be to Winter Falls I end up kissing the man. I blame those symmetrical dimples. Or maybe it’s his lush hair. Or his dark chocolate eyes.

Doth the man protest too much? Does Peace not hate me as much as he professes?

Maybe with the help of my sisters and the eccentric townspeople who play matchmaker like it’s their sole purpose in life, Peace and I can not only figure out how to put our differences aside but join forces as a couple.

Can a reformed troublemaker and a police officer have any chance at a happily ever after?

This enemies to lovers small town romantic comedy features a reformed troublemaker who’s way too busy trying to rebuild her life to have time for a man, a police officer who can’t help but take one look at the troublemaker and want despite knowing she’s no good for him, three sisters who don’t understand the word ‘pushy’, and a whole town of hippies convinced they’re the best matchmakers this side of the Mississippi.

Meet Hate is a standalone novel in the Winter Falls ~ Dempsey Sisters series.

My Rating:

Favorite Quotes:

 

“Oh boy. She is one pissed off bartender. I hope she doesn’t put laxatives in our drinks.” I better not tell her about the time Cassandra added cherry-flavored milk of magnesia to our cherry vodka sours. It was a shit show. Literally.

I have to admit this town is adorable. It’s quaint and cute. It could be the set of a Hallmark movie. Except there’s a man walking his squirrels down the street.

From now on, I will always treat you the way you deserve.” “Which is?” “As my queen.” She smiles. “You’re a quick learner.”

She’s loved him since she was old enough to understand boys don’t have cooties.

My Review:

 

This was a fun and lively read laced together with amusing scenarios and unique family issues and flare-ups. The storylines were active and well-paced and occurred in the oddest, most eccentric, and ecologically greenest little hamlet on earth. The concept for this humorous and sexy series was as clever as it was entertaining.

D.E. Haggerty is actually just plain old Dena, but she thinks using initials makes her sound sophisticated and maybe even grown-up. She was born and raised in the U.S. but considers herself a Dutchie and not only because it sounds way cooler. After a stint in the U.S. Army, she escaped the US to join her husband in Holland. She fled Holland over ten years ago when she couldn’t stand the idea of being a lawyer for one single second more. Turns out Bed & Breakfast owner in Germany didn’t do it for her either. When the hubby got a job in Istanbul, she jumped ship and decided to give this whole writer thing a go. She’s now back in Holland, which she considers home. Sorry, Mom.
