Maddie's teenage crush humiliated her fifteen years ago. Now Quinn runs the Otter Tail pub that Maddie inherited and needs to sell. Too bad Maddie's high school crush on Quinn is still alive and kicking.

Quinn wants to buy the pub, but can’t afford Maddie’s price, so he plays dirty. His smile, bright blue eyes, and broad shoulders are just his initial bid. As they get reacquainted, they realize someone else has plans for the pub. Plans that endanger Maddie and Quinn – and the rest of Otter Tail.

Can Maddie and Quinn save the pub? Can they put their past behind to create a future together?

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Watson's well-written novel has characters with real depth. She's spot-on in her depiction of Maddie's anxiety over her finances and Quinn's inability to commit." 4 stars -- Alexandra Kay, RT Reviews "All of the characters in AnUnlikely Setup are well-illustrated and unique - no stock people here. Reading An Unlikely Setup is like kickingback with a soft, fuzzy blanket and hot chocolate on a cold snowy winter day. Warm, comfortable and entertaining." -- Ana, IReadRomance.com

"Margaret Watson, a star in the world of contemporary romance, grabs you on the opening page and keeps you reading to the happily ever after." -- Susan Elizabeth Phillips, NYT Bestselling Author

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I've made up stories in my head for as long as I can remember - I put myself to sleep at night when I was young by rewriting the plots and endings of books I'd read. I assumed this was normal and everyone else did it, too, until I began getting weird looks when I talked about it. Finally, when I was twelve, I figured it out and decided I'd be a writer when I grew up.

I got sidetracked by my love of animals and the need for a 'real' job, so I became a veterinarian instead. Twenty-five years ago, when I realized I was making up stories about my clients and their pets, I decided to try putting them down on paper.

The result? After writing thirty books for Harlequin and selling millions of copies of them, I'm now writing The Donovan Family series, romantic suspense novels about a family of Chicago cops.

I consider myself the luckiest person in the world to be involved in two careers that I love. But more important than either career is my family - my husband and my three daughters. We live in a Chicago suburb with a menagerie of pets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Maddie and Quinn
Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019

Maddie has come back to Otter Tail to sell the business that her God-father David left to her and possibly the house also. However, when she goes in the house so many memories surface that she just isn't sure she can sell it. So she goes to "The Office" to see what it looks like, only it isn't "The Office" anymore. It's the The Harp And Halo, an Irish Pub. Quinn Murphy is the bartender. From what she just heard David was supposed to sell it to him. Why didn't he? What is she supposed to do now? She needs as much money as she can get to not only pay back her friend Hollis but her other debts. To find out what happens next, read this great story by Margaret Watson.

I enjoyed the banter and I was eager to see how the problems were getting solved. The romance was mediocre until the end when the heat got turned up.

This was a light and interesting small town romance. Quinn and Maddie were acquaintances when she was visited her godfather in the summer and he embarrassed her her last summer there. Her godfather died and she inherited his house and business so she had to go back to deal with things throwing them together.

Maddie went into the pub to just check it out before she headed to David's home. She decided to have a beer and observe the clientele and how busy it was. After all she now owned the pub and David's house. She was planning on selling them both so she could pay back a large l o an from a friend and pay off her contractors and be debt free.She did not know how confusing and complicated things would get.

Set up by their dead friend, Maggie and Quinn didn't stand a chance. All the other details just got in the way and nearly broke their hearts before they discovered that love was stronger than any hurt from the past.

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2019

Margaret Watson doesn't waste any time before getting in to the swing of things and the only thing for the reader to do is hang on and enjoy the ride. The only downside for me was what I considered to be an excessive amount of graphic sex. (I attempt to avoid this by paying close attention to the reviews). That issue aside, this is a very entertaining book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just okay. Predictable.
Reviewed in Canada on February 18, 2020

SPOILER ALERT This book was okay. The hero was a jerk. If a guy said the things to me that he said to Maddie there would be no forgiveness. And Maddie is very immature for a 31 year old woman. Also, the ending was down right ridiculous. They fell in love and got engaged after a couple weeks? C’mon. And he didn’t even propose. He just assumed and she made him ask. And there was absolutely no surprise or twist about the person responsible for the pub.
