A clean and wholesome small-town romance where secrets, second chances and an unexpected connection could change everything.

She's broke, desperate and hiding secrets—he's everything she never expected.

Life for Sheridan Lane Scott isn't just tough—it's embarrassing. When her ultra-wealthy father is arrested for embezzlement, she gets fired from her high-flying job, gets dumped by her so-called friends and then is forced to take a dead-end job as a restaurant greeter.

But fate has other plans when she accidentally breaks an expensive bottle of wine and meets Noah Kent, the kind and charismatic restaurant owner who swoops in to save the day. Offering her a job and a place to stay, Noah becomes a beacon of hope in her chaotic world.

As sparks fly between them, Sheridan wrestles with the fear that her past will ruin their future. Can she trust Noah with her secrets, or is this doomed from the start?

The Desperate Deal is the charming first book in the Seashells and Sunsets clean and wholesome romantic comedy series. If you like earnest infatuation, laugh-out-loud dialogue and endearing characters, then you’ll adore Dineen Miller's sweet and hilarious tale.

REVIEWS Icon

Dineen Miller is an award-winning and Amazon bestselling author who writes closed-door romantic comedies filled with swoony moments, snappy banter, and just enough awkward flirting to feel real. When she’s not writing happily ever afters, she’s hoarding yarn like a dragon, crocheting her way through a Netflix binge, or laughing at her husband’s punniest jokes (even when she pretends to roll her eyes). Life at home includes two quirky dogs, a yarn collection with its own zip code, and a husband who thinks he's hilarious (and he kind of is). Want a free novella?
