Sunny Side: A Grumpy-Sunshine MM Romance

Nick Roussos inherited three things when his father died: a beloved Long Beach diner, a mountain of grief, and one problem he isn't allowed to fire.Nick can't cook. He can barely keep the lights on, and with a developer circling the block and the lease running out, the Skylark has maybe one summer left. All he has left of his father is a room he refuses to change so much as a napkin dispenser.Then Dante Villanueva walks in the back door - the sunshine chef Nick's father hired in secret, handed a fifteen-percent stake, and never once mentioned. Dante's got magic on the griddle, a grin that won't quit, and a job offer in the city he keeps one foot out the door for. He didn't come to erase Nick's father. He came to stand beside him.Saving the diner means changing everything Nick swore he'd never touch - and falling, hard, for the one man he's supposed to resent. But Dante's exit is already booked, the clock on the Skylark is almost out, and the cruelest thing Nick owns is the thing he says when he's scared.Two stubborn men, one tiny kitchen, and a whole lot of reasons to stand too close.Some things you keep by holding on. Some you only keep by letting them change.A standalone MM romance in the City Hearts series - grumpy/sunshine, forced partners, found family, and a guaranteed happy ending. No cheating, no cliffhangers.
