Golden Locke is freshly single, fiercely successful, and one hundred percent not looking for love-until her sisters launch her into a "three dates, max" experiment that turns into a parade of red flags: conspiracy theories, crypto pitches, and a fitness influencer who wants to monetize her heartbreak.
But the one man she can't stop running into isn't a date at all.
Detective Sergeant Mason Callahan saw Golden at her worst-wine, fire pit, and the messy end of a marriage-and instead of judging her, he listens. Really listens. And when her ex tries to smear her name and sabotage her fresh start, Mason is the calm in the storm... even as Golden's fear of trusting anyone threatens to push him away.
With sharp humor, undeniable chemistry, and a heroine learning how to choose herself, Golden Locke & The Three Dates is a second-chance romance about rebuilding after betrayal-and discovering that the safest place to land might be in the hands of the last person you expected.
