Tess hasn't experienced many kindnesses in her eighteen years. So, when her boyfriend abandons her at a small-town gas station with nothing but the clothes on her back, she's furious, but not overly surprised.

Since calling her parents isn't an option, she finds herself at the mercy of strangers. But even the worst situations can have a silver lining. For Tess, it's a town called Jasper Creek, a diner everyone calls Earl's, and a young mechanic named Colten Reed.

If you're looking for the perfect feel-good summer romance, Rayna York's captivating standalone novel gives readers the small-town romance they crave with enough feels to make the heart sing.

"Charming and beautifully written, The Right Kind of Unexpected is a gentle, heart-warming tale of redemption, hope, discovering who you are meant to be and finding the one place in the world you can call home.
