Willa came out of the foster system, and she's put together the life she always wanted out of practically nothing. In this book, Willa gets the main character treatment. As I was reading, I found myself wanting to know more about Pru's new squad – and The Trouble with Mistletoe satisfied my curiosity. Sweet Little Lies highlights the importance of friendship just as much as it does the zing of a sexy flirtation.
Pru also befriends the complex's version of the Pink Ladies: Elle, an intimidating businesswoman Haley, an intern at the nearby optometrist's shop and Willa, a warm-hearted pet store owner. "When I was outlining this new Heartbreaker Bay series and setting in San Francisco – one of my favorite cities – I knew it was finally the right time to use it." "I was once in a place where I wished such a magical fountain really existed, and that stuck with me," Shalvis tells Bustle. but it ends up bringing romance to more than just Finn. Pru, of course, doesn't know that the fountain is magic. To try to ease her conscience, Pru throws a coin into the fountain outside the complex and wishes that Finn will find true love. Finn's interested in Pru, too, but there's something Pru knows that he doesn't: Pru's parents and Finn's father died in the same car accident, connecting them in ways that fill Pru with guilt. Pru quickly develops a crush on Finn O'Riley, who, along with his brother, runs the Irish pub on the apartment complex's ground floor.
The main character of Sweet Little Lies is a kick-butt boat captain named Pru Harris, who's just moved in to the complex.
I had the opportunity to talk to Shalvis after reading Sweet Little Lies and The Trouble with Mistletoe, which comes out this September - so if you're a Shalvis fan (and why wouldn't you be?), read on! The books in this series are set in San Francisco and tell the stories of apartment tenants who live next door to a wish-granting fountain. Some of her most talked-about series include the Animal Magnetism and Lucky Harbor books, but this year, Shalvis released the first title – called Sweet Little Lies – in a new series, the Heartbreaker Bay cycle. She's a New York Times best-selling author, and there's a reason for her popularity: her writing is character-driven, accessible, and just the right kind of sultry. If you've ever browsed the Romance section at your local bookstore, you've probably seen countless Jill Shalvis' books.
