Batter & Gasoline

She's building a sweet empire in Savannah. He's rebuilding classic muscle in Boise. Distance was never part of the blueprint.

Posie Grace Stephens has her senior year at Ole Miss mapped out to the last detail: ace her business classes, graduate with honors, and launch Sugar Rush-her dream historic Savannah bakery-without a single distraction. She doesn't have time for romance, especially not the whirlwind, heart-stopping kind.

Enter Joshua Beckham.

Grounded, broad-shouldered, and fiercely loyal, the Boise mechanic with grease on his hands and a classic Camaro under his hood wasn't looking for love on a crowded Daytona beach. But one look at the golden-haired southern baker, and Josh knows his world has permanently shifted off its axis.

What starts as a spontaneous Spring Break spark quickly turns into something unbreakable. From late-night FaceTime calls across three time zones to surprise cross-country deliveries, carved wooden turtles, and secret airport reunions, Posie and Josh learn that true love doesn't care about miles on an odometer.

But as graduation approaches and real-world pressures mount, can a southern sunshine girl and an Idaho mechanic prove that 1,800 miles is no match for forever?

A sweet, swoon-worthy long-distance romance full of Southern charm, classic cars, grand romantic gestures, and a hero who will do whatever it takes to show up.
