Matilda Benton is strategic, sarcastic, and chronically underestimated. A disabled consultant hired to launch a new craft beer brand, she’s excellent at her job—and terrible at letting anyone get close.
Jake Trellis helped build the family business. He’s sharp, stubborn, foul-mouthed, and absolutely not looking for love—especially not with the woman who shows up late, hustles him at pool, and critiques his t-shirt like it personally offended her.
Their meet-cute is more of a meet-disaster.
What starts as workplace friction becomes banter, attraction, and an inconvenient emotional pull neither of them expected. And Matilda isn’t just drawn to Jake—she’s pulled into the chaos that surrounds him: slobbering dogs, sniping siblings, unfiltered dinners, and a clan that feels less like coworkers and more like… home.
Matilda has never belonged anywhere. Now she’s in the middle of something loud, loyal, and unexpectedly steady.
The Call is a slow-burn romantic comedy about connection, found family, and choosing love on your own terms. Funny, heartfelt, and sneakily strange, it’s the first book in a series about finding your people—and choosing joy when it finally shows up.
Includes boatloads of foul language, adult themes, emotional meltdowns, and a handful of sex-positive moments.
