He stole her grandmother's café.

So she opened her own forty feet across the street.

Frankie Russo spent nine years pouring her grandmother's recipes into the corner café the whole neighborhood calls home. Her husband handled the paperwork. She never read it.

Then one night in a hotel lobby, she finds out what that cost her: the affair, the buyout already drafted, and the plan to swap her grandmother's secret recipe for something cheaper.

He gets the name, the company, and a new girlfriend.

Now she's taking everything that was never on the paperwork — the recipes, the crew, the regulars — and opening right across from his front door, where every morning the neighborhood gets to choose.

She's also caught the eye of the quiet man in the expensive coat who's been sitting in her corner for a month, tipping twenty on a three-dollar espresso. Dominic Ferraro owns half the restaurants in the city. But he doesn't want her recipes, her business, or her thanks.

He just wants to stand next to her while she wins.

Grounds for Divorce is a full-length revenge romance with a wronged wife who gets even, a billionaire who backs her instead of rescuing her, and one very public morning the whole neighborhood turns out for. HEA guaranteed. Steamy.
