BOOK DESCRIPTION
She swore off men. He's hiding from his past. Their business partnership is about to break every single rule.
Chloe Evans's New Year's resolution is simple: No More Men. For Real This Time. Her vintage boutique is failing, her trust is shattered, and the last thing she needs is a handsome distraction-especially one with a mysterious British accent and a business proposal.
Lucas Thorne is a ghost in a tailored suit. A damaged investor with secrets deeper than his pockets, he offers Chloe a lifeline: capital, expertise, and a 30-day trial partnership to save her shop. The catch? He wants creative control and 50% of everything-including the walls she's spent years building around her heart.
Forced to work side-by-side in her crumbling storefront, their clash is instant and electric. He's all data-driven spreadsheets; she runs on chaotic intuition. But beneath the arguing and the simmering tension, a fragile connection forms over sawdust and shared solitude. Just as Chloe begins to wonder if some risks are worth taking, Lucas's haunted past arrives by FedEx, forcing him to flee to London without explanation.
Impulsively, Chloe breaks her own rule and follows him across the ocean, only to discover the truth: Lucas isn't just a wealthy investor. He's a disgraced heir with a criminal record, battling a ruthless father who wants him erased for good. Now, Chloe must choose-return to her safe, solitary life, or fight for the man who's shown her that even the most broken things can be restored into something breathtakingly new.
The New Year's Resolution I'm Breaking is a sparkling, heartfelt romantic comedy about second chances, found family, and the courage to rebuild-perfect for fans of Emily Henry's banter, Katherine Center's emotional depth, and Abby Jimenez's blend of humor and heart.
