Spring Market Surprise

Book excerpt: What happens when a perfectionist real estate agent can’t sell a house at the start of the season? For Lexi Martin this means learning to pivot and not only dodging curveballs but learning how to hit them out of the park. Life in Meadow Ridge is idyllic. Lexi should know—she lives on Poppy Lane where all the neighbors get along, celebrate at every opportunity, and hardly ever move away. But when a freak spring snowstorm leads to losing clients, she shifts her focus to a new project. A retirement living community is under construction and Lexi believes she can convince her older neighbor, George, to downsize to the new condos thus allowing her to sell his Poppy Lane home and cash in on the new deal. Unbeknownst to Lexi, and most of the neighbors, George has plans of his own and they don’t involve moving. George has fallen for his neighbor’s cousin, Fiona who is house-swapping from Ireland. Can Lexi convince him to sell or will she learn to live and let love on Poppy Lane?
