Sometimes what you need isn't what you wished for.

When Ash Hendrix moves into her aunt’s historic home in Loveland, Texas, she’s ready to bring New York City style to the sleepy little town. But her dream of remodeling the old home into a stylish restaurant is cut short when the mayor interferes.

Her opposite in every way, the infuriating Adam is the last man she could ever be attracted to. So why can’t she stop thinking about him?

Mayor Adam Walker can’t believe the cute blonde he met at the festival is the woman who’s trying to destroy his family’s legacy. Initially intent on shutting down her plans, he’s shocked to find himself wanting to fulfill them. But she doesn’t trust him. And why would she, with her traumatic past and his earlier antagonism?

Can these two opposites find happily-ever-after?

Not without a little help from their friends and family… and a can of pink paint.

You'll love this opposites-attract, small town, grumpy sunshine romance from USA Today bestselling author Tamie Dearen.

Love all of Tamie's books. Adam is the mayor and family legacy is very important to him because he is adopted. Ash comes to town and wants to turn his grandmother's house into a restaurant and paint it wild colors. Serious issues are discussed, but laugh out loud humor also.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is He Really Her Cousin?
Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2017
Restoring Romance is a charming story about love and misconception. Ash Hendrix grew up without the love of a close knit family. When her mother died when she was a young teen, Ash was dumped into the foster care system were she was abused. As an adult she is ecstatic to find out she had a grandmother, an aunt and four cousins she did not know anything about. Though her grandmother has died, she left Ash a house and some money. Ash is a cat loving chef who wants to turn the bottom part of the house into her new up-scale restaurant.

Mayor Adam Walker, Ash's dog loving cousin (by adoption) does not want her to turn his beloved grandmother's house into a restaurant. He want to restore it to its former glory as part of his family's heritage. It is dislike and distrust a first sight between these two adversaries. There is also major attraction between them. Yet, through a misunderstanding Ash believes that Adam is a blood relative and is strictly off limits which he is not. How Ms. Dearen solves this sticky situation makes for a very heartwarming story. I really enjoyed reading this book and so will you.

I received this book from the author and I am freely posting this fair and balance review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!
Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2018
I really enjoyed this sweet romance. The interaction between the two main characters kept my attention, even though it was occasionally predictable. I loved how the author deals with the past (adoption, abuse, etc.) of the main characters and weaves their resulting characteristics in a way that makes them the perfect couple. I also loved that she does it without swearing or steamy bedroom scenes. A truly feel-good romance!
