Publisher's summary

When a driven businesswoman from Boston collides with a free-spirited artist on a Vermont mountainside, they share a memorable—and steamy—night, but life soon pits them against each other over the fate of a family business.

Emily Janssen prefers to play it safe. At thirty-five, she’s still working at the inn her grandmothers own while dreaming of a day when she’s able to support herself fully with her art. And while her friends have all hiked to the summit of the mountain in their hometown of Crescent Falls, Vermont, something has always held Emily back.

Diana Devlin has already made it to the top. Well, almost. She’s this close to securing the promotion that will put her in line to take over as CEO of her family’s hotel chain when her father retires. Everything is going to plan until an unexpected run-in with an alluring artist on a mountainside throws Diana off course, resulting in one of the hottest nights either she or Emily have ever experienced.

Emily walks away from their rendezvous feeling inspired to channel some of Diana’s confidence and finally chase her dreams. For Diana, it’s a reminder that with the right woman, she is capable of wanting more than one night.

But their growing passion threatens to burn them both when they learn that the hotel Diana’s in town to buy is none other than Emily’s grandmothers’ beloved inn. It’s Emily’s home, and no big city outsider—not even Diana—is going to take it away from her.

Will the view from the top be worth the climb, or will they both have farther to fall?

Hot and beautiful

I loved this book. It’s set exactly where it needs to be, the characters are well developed and interesting, and the chemistry between them is unbelievable. Quinn, you have out done yourself with the narration on this audiobook. I loved every minute I listened to this and will probably listen to it 1 million more times. Congratulations Rachel Lacey on an incredibly lovely story filled with heart, sexiness, and hope.

Wonderful

Some times you can tell the book by the narrator, and this book was chosen because it is Quinn Riley narrating it. And I was not wrong, it is wonderful. I loved the drama, it is spicy as needed not too much not too little, and it is well written.

Another homerun for Rachel

A very cute uplifting story. I throughly enjoyed it. An unlikely paring of a small hometown girl and a corporate business woman. As their relationship grows, they each gain a better understanding of themselves.

Enjoyed!

I bought this book as soon as I heard the dedication, without even listening to the rest of the sample. The narration perfectly fit the sweet and sexy story.

This is the perfect fall season Romance! It's so warm, comfy, and cozy. 🍂🥰🍁

Diana and Emily start off hot and heavy, both of them thinking it's only a one-night thing. However, after realizing that their worlds have collided, they try to keep things platonic. That just leaves room for them to truly get to know one another and connect on a deeper level. Plus, I love all supporting characters - family, friends, etc. Makes you feel that small-town magic.

Quinn Riley was perfect throughout! 👏👏👏
