Marietta Nagy Book order (chronological)

In a charming small town, a sweet flower shop owner, Annie Walker, embarks on a quest for love, only to realize that finding her ideal match in Rome, Kentucky, is more challenging than expected. After overhearing a date label her as “boring,” she questions her approach to romance and considers transforming herself into a more flirtatious version, inspired by her favorite movie heroines. To practice, she recruits Will Griffin, a strikingly handsome and tattooed bodyguard temporarily back in town for a wedding. Will has his own intentions: to avoid any emotional entanglements in this sleepy place. However, as he helps Annie navigate her romantic endeavors, he finds himself drawn to her in ways he never anticipated. Their “educational” tutoring sessions quickly evolve into something more intimate, revealing deeper layers to Will's stoic demeanor. As their friendship blurs into romance, Annie begins to rethink her idea of the perfect partner. She realizes that love doesn’t have to be flawless; it just needs to be genuine. Amidst the chemistry and unexpected emotions, both Annie and Will discover that sometimes, the best connections come from the most unlikely circumstances.
