Crochet Hooks Wooden Spoons Meddling Irish Mammies Welcome to the Jelly Dot Wars
She came under protest. He came with no plan, no chill, and absolutely no idea what to do with his hair.
Annie Jones swore she’d never forgive Lorcan O’Brien after he stole her sweets—and she smashed him over the head with her fairy wand before rugby-tackling him into the paddling pool at his fifth birthday party.
But when a family wedding drags her to a tropical resort in the Seychelles, Annie finds herself roped into dance lessons, maid-of-honour duties, and sharing far too much oxygen with the boy she once took down like a feral pixie.
Lorcan thought he was over his childhood nemesis. Then she walked in wearing a sundress and wielding a crochet hook and sarcasm like nuclear weapons. Now he’s the best man opposite her in a quickstep routine choreographed to “Let’s Face the Music and Dance”—and somehow expected to keep his hair, and his heart, in check.
Between wedding chaos, deranged family group chats, and wooden-spoon-wielding Irish mammies, Annie and Lorcan are about to learn what happens when childhood enemies grow up… and start to notice each other.
Enemies to lovers. Slow burn. Zero chill. Lots of cake.
All under the watchful eye of a broken Infant of Prague statue.
