Bachelor Forced Proximity Sparks
(2025)(The eighth book in the Bachelor's Second Chances Series series)
A Story by Penny Snoak
She ran from a life she never chose… and straight into the arms of the man who could change everything.
Evonne Viel is done suffocating under designer expectations and a future mapped out by her wealthy Manhattan parents.
She craves freedom. Space. Realness.
So she flees to Pine Hollow—a quiet town where no one cares about last names or trust funds.
What she doesn’t expect?
Thomas McGrogan.
Rugged. Steady. A carpenter with rough hands and a soft heart.
He builds homes. Keeps to himself. And sees right through her polished facade.
Their worlds couldn’t be more different.
But in the flicker of bonfires and the hush of river nights, something electric ignites.
Their chemistry is raw. Real. And impossible to ignore.
But Evonne’s past doesn’t let go easily.
As family pressure closes in and her old life claws to pull her back, she has to make a choice—run again… or fight for the life and love she never knew she needed.
One small town. One big secret. And one love that could be her greatest escape—or her undoing.
Bachelor Forced Proximity Sparks is a steamy, emotional story of breaking free, falling hard, and discovering that sometimes the best love is the one you never saw coming.
