 Justine MacDermott is in what she would call a transition period: squatting in her best friend’s house and working in an appliance store in Polson Falls while the man she was supposed to marry starts a new life with someone else. She’s definitely not thinking about slashing his tires and wishing his vital extremities would fall off. When newcomer Garrett Harrington strolls into Murphy’s Appliances looking to buy a refrigerator, Justine convinces herself she’s found her rebound. Or the next love of her life. Either works. But a chance encounter leads her to discover that Garrett isn’t who he made himself out to be, and he’s more interested in hustling her kindly old boss out of his family business—and using her to do it. Furious at being fooled by yet another man and itching for retribution, Justine enlists the help of unlikely townsfolk to battle Harrington Group’s big-city development plans for Polson Falls. It’s all going to plan … until Justine finds herself crossing enemy lines. 3.5 Heart Review by Ashley The Hustler Next Door was just the book I needed to ring in the new year. It was playful and smart, funny and full of small town goodness. I adored Justine. She was bold and sassy and unafraid to speak her mind. Even when her heart had been battered, she wouldn't settle for just anyone or anything. Especially the gorgeous sweet talker with big plans for her new home. I feel there was too much time building all the backstory and not enough time with Justine and Garrett actually together. That being said, I loved the sharp, witty banter and the anticipation of Justine and Garrett's slow burning, enemies-to-lovers romance. About the Author  K.A.
