Call It Unexpected

From author M.E. Montgomery comes a prequel to her brand new small town romance series, Sterling Mill.
Emalee Dawson is no stranger to hard work and tempered dreams. Through sheer grit and family support, she receives a chance to take a break from her small mountain town and go to culinary school in the big city. There she meets Zach, a handsome and charming university student who helps her dream beyond the walls of the family bed-and-breakfast she is expected to one day take over.
Zach Abbott has always worked to be the best at everything. ItΓ’β¬β’s exhausting but easier than facing his fatherΓ’β¬β’s disappointment.

An unexpected encounter with Emalee has him rethinking what he truly wants, risking his fatherΓ’β¬β’s anger.
A sudden twist of fate pushes them in opposite directions, and unexpected complications alter their lives foreverΓ’β¬Β¦even ones they donΓ’β¬β’t know about yet.
