ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 24, 2025

Sometimes the temptation is too much to deny. Falling into bed with my best friend’s brother was an accident. What happened right after… not so much.

With abs more defined than the Texas Hill Country and a killer smirk I can’t ignore, the “boy next door” is all grown up and too hot for his own good. My heart races for a man who’s forbidden. My breath catches each time his hand brushes against mine.

His heated glances melt me, leading me closer to temptation.

One night together has us desperate for more. But we have no desire to give this small town something to talk about—or worse, upset his sister.

But when a new tyrant of a landlord threatens my family’s business, I need a miracle.

Call it a marriage of convenience or a friendly favor, but he comes through for me. The diamond ring on my finger gets me out of a jam but also has us confronting our feelings.

Did I just make a deal with the devil? Or am I actually falling in love with my husband?

REVIEW: In “Lead Me Knot,” SL Scott combines sharp wit and sizzling chemistry to create a delightful ranch romance set in the quaint town of Peachtree Pass. This engaging sequel captures the essence of small town charm while tackling the complexities of unexpected love.

I’ve not read the first book, do you need to? I don’t think you do, although I did like the book (so I guess I’ll be coming back soon 😉)

Peachtree Pass is a tight-knit community (I do love a small town romance 🥰) Friendships flourish, gossip abounds, and the stakes feel real as both Baylor and Lauralee maneuver through their complicated feelings and the judgment of their neighbors. (Keeping this relationship a secret from his sister/her best friend is proving tricky to say the least!)

Lauralee finds herself in a bind, and what seems like a casual marriage of convenience turns into something much more. The characters are well written, with their playful banter, it did make me chuckle at the one liners they would throw at each other 😂 You could feel the tension between the main characters, balancing the thrill of newfound feelings with the complications of their situation, deeper emotions start to evolve, will this deal lead to heartbreak, or can it blossom into true love?

Overall, “Lead Me Knot” is a heartfelt and entertaining read, perfect for those who enjoy stories about love, friendship, and the unexpected turns life can take.

The blend of humor, romance, and small town charm makes me add the next book to my TBR. 😉

A delightful blend of romance and community, this book will tug at your heartstrings and keep you smiling long after the last page.
