Matching Mav Thomas
(2025)(The sixth book in the Life With the Thomas Brothers series)
A novel by M J Padgett
Lonely Maverick Thomas needs a girlfriend, and his mortal enemy is determined to find his perfect match.
Years ago, Aussie Newland’s small family of two moved to Coldstone Creek to escape her father’s colorful past. She had hoped to start over—new life, new friends, new possibilities—but when her father fell back into his old ways and was arrested in front of half the town, she lashed out at everyone, including her sweet science lab partner. Left with no one to turn to, Aussie ended up in foster care. There, she spiraled out of control and pushed everyone away before disappearing.
When Maverick Thomas catches a glimpse of Aussie from the window of his family’s bakery, his heart stops cold. Aussie almost ruined his life and his career as a firefighter before it began, then disappeared for a year. He can forgive her for ruining their science project, lighting his jersey on fire, and lying to the principal about him cheating on his research paper. But he’s not sure he can forgive her for running away.
Broke and alone, Aussie needs to find a job before she ends up on the streets. When she opens the door to Sweet and Salty, the local bakery seeking a delivery driver, she’s hopeful she can make enough money to secure a one bedroom apartment. She doesn’t expect to come face to face with Maverick, the one boy who gave her hope that life might have a silver lining. He single handedly ensures she gets the job. To repay him she, sets out to find someone who can make his dreams of happily ever after come true.
Matching Maverick Thomas is an enemies to lovers sweet new adult romance with swoony kisses, everyday faith in action, and a side of comedy.
