Crazy Love: A Frenemies to Lovers Small Town Romantic Comedy

Written by Melissa Schroeder

Narrated by Holly Chandler and Javi Wilder

USA Today author Melissa Schroeder invites you back to the world of Juniper Springs, and the one man who lives life on his own terms, CARTER HAWTHORNE.

I’ve always been the brother who everyone calls the flirt. The one who isn’t too serious, the one who is a little…different.

And I don’t mind that title. In fact, I use my ability to think outside of the box to help my family in their business.

I’m also known as the player, although, I haven’t…suited up in a while. So maybe that’s why I’ve become completely infatuated with my old childhood friend Piper Abernathy.

Just saying her name makes me itch beneath my skin. I want to know what she’s thinking, how she spends her days, and I fantasize what her hair smells like.

Weird, right?

And her lips…they are intoxicating. One taste will never be enough, and while I can talk her into my bed, she resists me beyond that.

She says we make each other bonkers, and she doesn’t believe in happily ever after.

For a woman who plans out ever minute of her day, she never counted on me, and I aim to prove to her there’s nothing wrong with crazy as long as you’re together.

Author Note: If you’ve met Carter, you know just how insane he is. But, he is in Juniper, wooing his old childhood friend, irritating his brother, making friends with the LOLs, and becoming at one with the Juniper Springs culture. And if you think he’s crazy with his family, just wait until you see the things he does to his lady love.

Melissa Schroeder

From an early age, USA Today Bestselling author Melissa loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book. Since her first published book, Grace Under Pressure, Mel has had over 60 short stories, novellas, and novels published. She has written in genres ranging from historical to contemporary to futuristic and has worked with 8 publishers although she handles most of her publishing herself. She is best known for her Harmless and Santini series. After years of following her military husband around the country and world, Mel happily lives with her family in horse and wine country in Northern Virginia.

This second book is better than the first in the series. More focus on dynamics, less crass, shallow material.

I enjoyed this series after listening to Camos and Cupcakes series. I'm glad Carter finally got his happily ever after. I want Wyatt and Becca to get a book as well as Jason. I'm glad she's going back to the O'Brian sisters. I can't wait for the next book.

The author makes these adults with ADHD sound like they are on the spectrum or something it’s annoying .
