Courting Disaster: A Small Town, Bad Boy Romance
About this ebook
Connie Winters finally has her life together. Freshly-minted attorney, first big case, and the defendant is none other than Pineville’s favorite bad-boy building contractor, David Carelli—the same smirky heartbreaker who’s been the pebble in her pumps since high school. One courtroom victory and she’ll wipe that cocky grin off his face. Win-win.
David doesn’t lose. Not in business, not in life, and definitely not to the one woman who’s been immune to his charm since they were teenagers. He’s ready to play dirty. Especially when “hostile negotiations” start feeling a whole lot like foreplay.
Between the rogue goat terrorizing the town, the random acts of knitting popping up everywhere, and David’s shameless scheming to win the Citizen of the Year award, Connie’s never been more tempted to take the out-of-town job offer that could launch her career.
But David Carelli always gets what he wants—and right now he wants her.
Courting Disaster is a laugh-out-loud small-town romance about second chances, enemies-to-lovers sparks, and the ultimate bad-boy redemption. Full of quirky Pineville neighbors, Founder’s Day festival scheming, and one smirky contractor who’s finally ready to tear down every wall he’s ever built—if only the feisty lawyer will stop suing him long enough to let him win her heart.
Author's Note: All of my books are 100% written by human quasi-intelligence. Never AI.

About the author
Allyson Charles lives in Colorado. She’s the author of sexy and funny small-town romances, including the Pineville Romance series and The Forever series. A former attorney, she happily ditched those suits and now works in her pajamas writing about men’s briefs instead of legal briefs. When she’s not writing, she’s probably engaged in one of her favorite hobbies: napping, eating, or martial arts (That last one almost makes up for the first two, right?). One of Allyson’s greatest sources of happiness is that she now lives in a city that has a Cracker Barrel.
Allyson Charles also writes steamy historical romances under the name Alyson Chase, and paranormal romances under the name A. Caprice.
