In a Jam
ByPublisher Description
When Shay Zucconi’s step-grandmother died, she left Shay a tulip farm—under two conditions.
First, Shay has to move home to the small town of Friendship, Rhode Island. Second—and most problematic since her fiancé just called off the wedding—Shay must be married within one year.
Marriage is the last thing in the world Shay wants but she’ll do anything to save the only real home she’s ever known.
Noah Barden loved Shay Zucconi back in high school. Not that he ever told her. He was too shy, too awkward, too painfully uncool to ask out the beautiful, popular girl.
A lifetime later, Noah is a single dad to his niece and has his hands full running the family business. That old crush is the farthest thing from his mind.
Until Shay returns to their hometown and turns his life upside down.
CW/TW: absentee parent(s), brief mention of parent death, brief mention of parent chronic illness, mention of incarceration, mention of temporary foster care placement, reference to teenage teasing/bullying (not detailed, not explicit), brief incidence of fat-shaming, living with a neurodivergent child

“Give me a small town, hot farmer romance all day long! I thought Jamie was hilarious, Noah was perfect, Imogen was so dang cute and I really did enjoy Shay’s story line. It was simple, spicyyy and the banter was fun! So if that’s your current mood, this is for you”kinga

“As someone born and raised in RI, I found some of the references to be cringey and a tad dramatized but they did paint our state in a great way. I just felt like Shay couldn’t have been that stupid or self-involved to not remember the letters she wrote every single day in high school. If this place had the impact on her life the way she claims, she’d remember those letters to Noah. Maybe not the little stars but at least the letters!! And if she is that self involved, Noah deserves more. I felt like Gennie just didn’t speak like a normal kid her age. Like her vocabulary was way too good. I also feel like I wish I got more from the epilogue like what’s going on with their poor relationships with all their moms? We just didn’t hear anything else about their traumas after and I wish we did. And lord do I hope Shay is in therapy.”
