She's a town icon. He's all business. Will their rivalry bring ruin or romance?

Graphic artist Lucy Shoemaker has never known a life outside of Blackwood. And she's determined to show the world why she loves her quaint Colorado hometown. But when a billionaire arrives looking to sell the land, Lucy feels both outrage and an irrepressible attraction…

John Blackwood usually gets what he wants. He never expected that selling the Podunk town would send him directly into a firecracker of a local. John knows that Lucy won't stop causing him problems…but is that why he can't get her off his mind?

With compromise off the table, will John and Lucy's passion disappear along with Blackwood or can they discover love's common ground?

What If… is a standalone contemporary romance with sizzling chemistry. If you like headstrong heroines, small-town drama, and a fresh twist on billionaire boyfriends, then you’ll adore Kelly Collins’ sassy saga.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific

What If is an excellent start to a new series. Lucy and John get off on the wrong foot but soon realize resisting their super HAWT chemistry is impossible. The tension between them over selling the town is always bubbling just under the surface of their relationship and does cause conflict. It is realistic conflict and adds to the story. I mean, when does true love ever run smoothly? I enjoyed watching Lucy grow and mature as the story progressed. She finally came to terms with why she was so against changing Blackwood and/or leaving it. John was a real romantic at heart and pulled off one of the biggest and best romantic gestures I've ever come across. *swoon*

I'm really looking forward to Kevin and Maya's story in the next book of the series.

If you enjoy well-written stories with well-developed characters set in small towns, look no further. Kelly Collins is superb at writing this type of story. I recommend this and all f the rest of her books.

If you are into small town sweet romance
then you are going to love this one.
Lucy loved the town and house she lived in.
John was from one of the original families that
started the town.
John and the rest of the family decided to sell all their interest
in the small town.
This is how John and Lucy met. If you want to know what happens
You are going to have to read it yourself.
Be prepared to to absolutely lose yourself in the plot.

Put it down to old age if you wish, but it makes me unhappy when I find myself involved in a really good story and then have it spoiled by being turned into a sex manual. You truly are capable of something better than this, Kelly Collins.

When you know, you know. It’s fun to read about characters that fall hard and fast in love, and it’s fun to imagine throwing money into the romance. Once I got into the book, I couldn’t put it down and can’t wait to start the next in series.

This is what you would call a adult fantasy of a happily ever after. Enjoyable and fun read.
Fav quote: When I met you I knew I’d hit the motherlode. You’re frustrating and fabulous. You’re beautifully bad and wonderfully wise. You’re kind and cantankerous.

John has come to town to close a deal that means the residents have to move out all be it with a pay off for their trouble. But Lucy doesn't want to move, she's lived in the house for years and regardless of what some family company wants they have a fight on their hands or at least John has. This story is like a push me pull you, that finally ends with Lucy moving out of town. It's a goog read that is funny and sad, but well worth reading.
