This Is Not A Romance- Consignment
About this book
✔️ Nursing student? Check.
✔️ Three jobs? Check.
✔️ Zero time for love? Double check.
Emma Clark has her priorities straight: pass nursing school, keep the residents at Maplewood Assisted Living entertained through book club, and never trust a man who doesn’t read the ingredient list on a gluten-free muffin. Love? Not on the checklist.
But when the assisted living book club ladies decide Emma’s love life needs a plot twist, they arm her with a new checklist—one full of romance tropes, strong chamomile tea, and a vintage shirt that might still smell like mothballs.
✔️ Meet-cute on public transit? Check.
✔️ Sinful smile and dark curls? Check.
✔️ Perfect casual fling? Double check.
The two checklists are separate and everything is going perfectly until, the casual bus fling ends up being the new psychiatrist for the assisted living home. Now Emma’s list is spiraling out of control:
✔️ Enough sexual tension to short circuit bingo night? Check.
✔️ Debates about patient care? Check.
✔️ Psychiatrist has already seen her naked? Double check.
All she has to do is check off the list and survive her shifts—without catching real feelings for the guy she promised was a distraction.
