About this ebook

Hate at first sight couldn’t possibly exist, right?


That’s what Grace Buchanan thought, before her useless car stranded her on the side of a deserted road just inside the Green Valley city limits.


When Tucker Haywood—tall and handsome and full of southern charm— shows up to help, her reaction to him is the strongest thing she’s ever felt in her life, and it makes no freaking sense.


It doesn’t make much sense to Tucker either. Not why she hates him, or why he finds her so intriguing. He knows well enough that Grace is moving to Green Valley for a fresh start, not to distract him when he’s got no room for something like her in his life.


The complications between them are endless, but that doesn’t stop her definitely not love-at-first-sight feelings from changing into something else entirely.


Grace and Tucker are about to learn the hard way that in Green Valley, hating someone has never tasted so sweet.


‘Batter of Wits’ is a full-length contemporary romance, can be read as a standalone, and is book #5 in the Donner Bakery series, Green Valley World, Penny Reid Book Universe.

Let the Sparks Fly! Trading the city life for a small town is definitely a change of scenery... But when that change starts off on a bad foot, you can't help but rethink your choices. Grace Buchanan is doing just that. Being the only Buchanan female within 5 generations, she has a lot to deal with. She wants to pave her own path, and she is avoiding the love-curse. It has "plagued" the men of her family and she doesn't want to fall into the same situation! Tucker Haywood. Sexy. Responsible. Nice. Sweet. But all that goodness doesn't change the way Grace despises him. . But maybe it is for the best. Tucker's life is planned. He works for the family business. He has the perfect girlfriend. But when he meets Grace the pull to her is strong. This story has a love-hate relationship and the growth that the two have between hate-friendship-love is well worth the read. They drawn you in. While this book is a standalone, you will get a glimpse of some of the other characters in the Donner Bakery series. So if you haven't read the previous books, read them and enjoy the rest of the characters and their stories. Another great read from Karla Sorensen!

Grace and her twin brother Grady are packing up and moving to Green Valley for fresh start. When Grace is almost there her car died and with no cell signal couldn’t call anyone. Shortly a man in a truck drives by and little did Grace know the Buchanan curse is real! Tucker just lived his life one day at a time stuck in a life that didn’t make him happy. Stopping to help a woman whose car broke down was the best thing that could happen to him. I loved these two together. Sometimes you make a hard right in life and it just what you need!!

I am loving the Smartypants Romance world and this new book set in the magical town of Green Valley is another stellar slice of life in this world. This is another story of the Buchanan curse and how it affects the only female Buchanan born in a lot of years! This is the story of Grace and Tucker. When they meet it definitely is not love at first sight, in fact, poor Grace Buchanan feels extreme hate for Tucker Haywood. Grace is trying to find a place to fit in Green Valley, she feels like she can't find where she belongs here. Until the hate for Tucker turns into an overwhelming love that comes on fast and burns bright. But circumstances force them to stay in the dark. Tucker is a smooth southern gentleman that just loves to push Grace's buttons, and pushes them he does! He too feels the overwhelming love for Grace, and he knows what that could cost for his family. I so enjoy Ms. Sorensen's descriptive words and her swoony heroes! She has a beautiful flow and pace to her story that I couldn't put down until the very end, and then I wish it didn't!
