Love...in the Aisles Free online reading

On a scale from one to 10 on the epic failure charts, Charlotte Dawson’s day just passed an 11.

The last thing Charlotte wants to do is go to the supermarket, but with a four-year-old to feed, she doesn’t have a choice. Just when she thinks she’s free and clear of marketplace drama, Charlotte finds herself in the throes of a hide-and-seek game with the nosiest woman in town. And if that wasn’t enough to add to her bad day, the hot new bag guy catches her hiding out...in the liquor section...on a Sunday in the South. But she can’t formulate the words to tell him to get lost. In fact, she can’t speak at all once she gazes into those hazel eyes.

Having been ditched at the altar by his long-term girlfriend, Hollywood sensation Ian "Cleary" Tate escapes to Sunrise Valley for one reason - peace. Serving as a temporary apprentice under his stepfather at Adler’s Market is the perfect cover - nothing says redefining his life like a little manual labor. Until he runs into a problem...Charlotte Dawson, the widow of the town’s biggest hero. He in no way expected to develop a fascination with the bumbling, yet refreshing, young mom, who just so happens to have the grace of a one-legged chimpanzee.

In a series of unexpected encounters between the aisles of the supermarket and the gossip-filled streets of Sunrise Valley, Charlotte, and Ian get to know one another, Georgia style - all under the watchful eyes of a group of meddling old women known as the GOLs (Gossiping Old Ladies).

It’s not easy falling in love after heartbreak, but Ian and Charlotte have a chance at exactly that...if Ian’s secret Hollywood fame and Charlotte’s former life don’t get in the way first.
