  Real Men Don’t Break Hearts by Coleen Kwan

  Ally Griffin was jilted at the altar six years ago, but it’s not her ex-fiancé she blames—it’s Nate Hardy, his cousin. Now the infuriating playboy is back in town and, even worse, is her new landlord. The last thing Nate needs as he’s trying to reinvent his life is an attraction to Ally, but as their short-term fling starts to feel more serious, can Nate provide what Ally really needs: a real man?

Trouble is, the one guy she secretly wants is Georgie’s older brother, Brad. When policeman Brad offers to help Kendall renovate her new bakery space on the side, their attraction flares back to life. Can two friends take a chance on love when it means risking everything?
