He's the grumpy former football player who hates my guts... so why am I carrying his baby?

I'm the sales manager for Five Fathoms Brewing, the brewery I started with my four best friends.

With a wink and a smile, I can get anyone to try our beer. Almost anyone, that is. Hudson, the local resort owner, refuses to do a deal with me.

I'm not taking no for an answer. Especially not from the King of Grumps who thinks our local beer isn't good enough for his fancy schmancy resort. I'll make him listen to me no matter what.

The last thing I expect is to get locked in a chalet at the resort with him. I also didn't expect him to fulfill every fantasy I've ever had about the former NFL football player who is the very definition of tall, dark, and handsome. But he does. All. Night. Long.

When morning arrives, I flee as fast as I can with a plan to forget all about my night with Mr. Grouchypants.

But I can't. Since I'm now carrying his baby.

This grumpy/sunshine, surprise pregnancy, small town romantic comedy features a sunshiny woman who is excited to start a family even if the family includes grumpystiltskin, a grumpy man who thinks his life ended when he stopped playing football, a seal that doesn't know it's not a traffic stop, too many mermaid legends to mention, and a group of girlfriends who are considering a career change from brewery owners to matchmakers.

While We Waited is a standalone novel in the Smuggler's Hideaway series.
