She has her guard up. He's never let his down.
I'm an admitted Type-A go-getter. If there are goes to be gotten, I'm the one to get them. Or something like that.
Don't get me started on how my knack for interior design is a cover-up for my internal struggle—anxiety and I are old frenemies. I probably shouldn't think about my dysfunctional family, either. Everyone has one of those, right? And lastly, we won't discuss how I'm officially in my forties and not exactly where I expected to be in life.

Except there's one problem and his name is Buck McDermott. The Viking-like blacksmith who I have to work with in order to transform this dump isn't going to last much longer if he doesn't obey the @DomesticDiva aka, me, Christina Abernathy (I even have an official blue checkmark on my social media).

But we won't talk about that either...or our secrets. Nope.
