Down London Road by Samantha Young | Spicy Enemies-to-Lovers Romance, Neighbors & Family Secrets | Rescued Romance

$12.00

She chooses men with her head, never her heart—until one infuriatingly judgmental bartender makes her lose control.

Johanna “Jo” Walker has spent most of her life caring for her younger brother, Cole. With an absent father and an unreliable mother, Jo has learned that love doesn’t provide safety—money does. She dates successful, financially secure men because stability is the only way she knows to protect herself and the brother who depends on her.

Then she meets Cameron MacCabe.

Cam is gorgeous, tattooed, creative, and completely wrong for Jo’s carefully constructed plans. He also takes one look at her polished appearance and wealthy boyfriend and decides she is shallow and materialistic. Their immediate attraction is buried beneath arguments, assumptions, and a mutual determination not to give in.

But when Cam begins working alongside Jo and moves into the flat below hers, avoiding him becomes impossible. As their chemistry intensifies, Cam starts seeing the vulnerable, fiercely protective woman behind Jo’s glamorous exterior. To have something real with him, Jo must finally reveal the painful family secrets she has spent years hiding—and believe she deserves to be loved for who she truly is.

Readers love Down London Road for its fiery banter, explosive chemistry, emotional depth, found family, and heroine whose choices make perfect sense once her walls begin to fall. Samantha Young balances scorching romance with a heartfelt story about self-worth, family responsibility, and allowing someone else to help carry the weight.

Why you’ll love it:

• Enemies-to-lovers tension
• Neighbors romance
• Tattooed bartender hero
• Protective older-sister heroine
• He judges her completely wrong

What is a Rescued Book?


A Rescued Book is a previously loved book that still has plenty of story left to give. It may show signs of its past life—like cover wear, bent corners, creases, markings, or other imperfections—but it’s still ready to be read and loved again.

What kind of wear or damage should I expect?


Every rescued book is different! You may find scuffs, creases, worn edges, stickers, writing, or other signs of previous ownership. Some may have only minor cosmetic flaws, while others are a little more well-loved. The imperfections are part of their story.

Why choose a Rescued Book instead of buying new?


Because great stories deserve another chapter! Rescued Books are a budget-friendly way to discover your next read while giving a perfectly readable book a new home. Plus, there’s something special about knowing your book has already been part of someone else’s reading journey—and now it gets to be part of yours.
