The Business Card Boyfriend (Starrycard Creek Bachelors Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars 480 ratings

Hailey Higgins just got dumped at the altar—and she’s nearly broke. Her only saving grace is a remote cabin a long-lost relative left her in the tiny mountain town of Starrycard Creek. It should be the perfect place to shut out the world and shun love. Under no circumstances should she want anything to do with the ruggedly handsome Finnegan Starrycard.

Finn is a growly, self-proclaimed bachelor for life. He’s the local handyman. That’s what it says on his business card. And this handyman has deemed her cabin to be uninhabitable.

Out of options, she can’t say no when Finn offers her his spare bedroom while he makes the necessary repairs to her place. Two love-haters under one roof sounds ideal until a boozy night leads to an agreement. Roommates with benefits. All physical. No feelings. And heaven help her! This handyman works magic with his hands, his tongue, and his . . . well, you get it.

She cannot fall in love with Finnegan Starrycard—or the picturesque town, or his endearingly quirky family. Still, the longer she stays, the harder it is to ignore the chemistry between them.

In Starrycard Creek, the locals say love is always in the cards.

Hailey would like to think she’s done with love.

But thanks to one grumpy handyman, love might not be done with her yet.

I loved this story!!
5 out of 5 stars
I loved this story!!
Wow, this book was everything I was expecting and so much more!! An amazing beginning for a brand new series that I know for sure will become a favorite of mine.Krista has become one of my to go authors because all her stories are fantastic, she definitely delivers in the entertaining, sexy and heartfelt moments and The Business Card Boyfriend is not short in all of these.Hailey Higgins has always wanted a love story similar to what her parents shared when they were alive, unfortunately for her that moment hasn't come yet because after she is dump in the altar she swears off love. After she is left without practically nothing but a letter in her purse stating she has inherit her late great uncle's cabin, she decides to take a leap of fate and head to the small and charming town of Starrycard Creek.Finn Starrycard wants nothing to do with love, this grumpy local handyman (that's what his business card says) has been burn and he doesn't want a repeat of that. So when Hailey is literally put in his path, some kind of business agreement is form between them because there is just something about this woman that drives him wild.Finn and Hailey have so much chemistry but their guarded hearts make it difficult to trust each other completely but what is meant for you is meant for you and I love how both of they have their own personal growing in this story realising at the end what is worth fighting for.If you love:*Grumpy/sunshine*small town romance*very sexy times*sweet*found family*cute kittens, crazy racoons and a little niece that makes the most hilarious commentsthen this is the book for you.

    If I knew nothing about this story and had only seen the cover, that would be enough to make me pick up this one. I’m usually not so…surface, but one glimpse, and I couldn’t look away. And as awesome as the cover model is, our hero, Fin Starrycard, is all that and more!

    Since it's the first in the series, we get a little more about the history of Starrycard Creek, CO, and the Starrycard family, beginning with the family patriarch who settled in the area and made a business of creating artisan paper now known throughout Colorado and beyond.

    Our hero, Fin, may be local royalty, but he's been unlucky in love lately. The last attempt burned him badly enough that he's hidden away at the family cabin in the mountains and pretty much avoids human interaction.

    Hailey Higgins has been just as unlucky, most recently having been left at the alter, so when her great-uncle leaves her his cabin in Starrycard Creek, it looks like a sign from the universe for the next step in her life. The only thing she knows about the area is on a business card that came with the key to the cabin – Finnegan Starrycard, Local Handyman.

    So, I’m always a little apprehensive when an author I’ve come to love starts a new series. Will I like it as much as her previous books? Will I fall in love with this new book world? Will the characters become life-long friends? Have no fear, my reader friend. With a Sandor book, we can count on having new people and places we'll fall in love with and will live in our hearts forever. This book world is unique and charming, and it jumps off the page in vivid detail. It took me less than a page before I was drawn in and fully immersed in this fictional world.

    The Starrycard family is quirky and funny but warm and welcoming, and I can’t wait for more of them. Fin is growly and grumpy, with good reason, and I loved watching this complex, vulnerable hero get a second chance at love. Hailey is delightful – strong and sassy but kind and big-hearted, and she fits in perfectly in this town and family.

    With kind-of-outrageous grandparents, a pseudo antagonist you'll want to see get his own HEA, and a four-legged family that will steal your heart, this one has everything you need for a phenomenal emotional ride. This romance is an epic night out with friends and a cozy night by the fire wrapped in your favorite soft blanket all in one. It's the most fun you can have while keeping your clothes on and staying this side of illegal, so make your romantic heart ecstatically happy and don’t miss this sweet, steamy, hilarious, unforgettable read!

    I found the ending of the story quite cute. However overall the story was long & tedious. I understand that you want to make Finn , secluded, hurt,, isolated because of his past. But to have an engineer of his talent as the key note Speaker be that awkward & embarrass himself in public like that is not funny or Heart warming. Not to mention after a period of Time that Finn didn't want anyone too know Hailey & him were involved In some way doesn't seem right.
    Hailey carrying that jar at all times. It's fun to have favorite treats but the idea that everyone would happen to fall for cherry licorice & pickles Seems a bit ridiculous. The characters seem more like there in high school then 2 professionals. Who have made bad judgement with regard to past relationships.
    The story could have have had a lot more potential with the characters. The opening of the plot & that
    Hailey's character would wear such a wedding dress considering her profession as a second grade teacher is absurd! You can desire to have a marriage like your parents without embarrassing yourself.

    This is a true sappy romance with a touch of spice. It is perfectly Hallmark movie and very sticky sweet in all the best ways.

    This book got me out of a terrible book slump. When I started reading, I just couldn’t put it down. The story is wel written and has a lot of banter and fun. I was in danger of waking up the kids laughing out loud in bed. Did it keep me up until 2 AM on a school/work night? Yes it did. Do I regret spending any second with this book. No I do not.
    Like I said, it was funny as can be, but also - it was such a swoon and touching book. I felt my heart constrict with the excellent build-up. The first kiss is one for the epic list, for sure!
    And then the hero. Well let’s talk about swoony oneliners, please:

    “If I don’t drown in your eyes, those lips of yours might be the death of me”

    Or

    “You’re cherry-scented fire, and tonight, you’re all mine”
    Ok, last one: “I want to be everything to you”

    GAH DID YOU FEEL ME SWOONING?

    So, my recommendation: read this book, you’ll love it and it is absolutely amazing. Also don’t start this before bed if you want to get good night’s sleep.

    How could you not love a book that starts at Stu’s Weddings and Funerals 4 Less and ends with a masterful concoction of errors to bring two people together.

    This is one of the sweetest stories, it has spice, it has hilarity, and it has kittens. What more can you ask for?

    When you’re looking for a break from your dark books, was this one.
