Rachael Anderson is the author of five novels (Working It Out, The Reluctant Bachelorette, Minor Adjustments, Luck of the Draw, and Divinely Designed) and two novellas (Twist of Fate, from the All I Want anthology and The Meltdown Match from The Timeless Romance Anthology: Summer Wedding Collection). She's the mother of four and is pretty good at breaking up fights, or at least sending guilty parties to their rooms. She can't sing, doesn't dance, and despises tragedies. But she recently figured out how yeast works and can now make homemade bread, which she is really good at eating.
Working It Out A chance encounter . . . Grace Warren's life is safe and predictable—exactly the way she likes it. But when she gets roped into going to an auction to help out a friend, everything changes. She meets Seth Tuttle—a guy who unexpectedly kisses her then disappears, leaving her flustered and upset. If she never sees him again, it will be too soon.
A chance for love . . . Weeks later, when Seth limps into Grace's rehab clinic post surgery, she immediately recognizes him. Unfortunately, he's every bit as frustrating and annoying as she remembered. Yet there's something about him that makes her second-guess her carefully placed boundaries even though he's everything she's sure she doesn't want in a man. But maybe Seth is exactly what Grace has needed all along—assuming she's willing to risk safe and predictable for a chance at love.

Excerpt 2
Seth flipped
through a magazine, completely oblivious to the fact that he was about to get
reacquainted with the woman he’d outbid and kissed.
Grace suddenly
wanted to duck back through the door and tell her receptionist that Seth Tuttle
would have to reschedule with a different therapist in a different office, and—if
possible—a different state. Grace didn’t want to be anywhere near the aftermath
of the chaos he was bound to cause.
As if sensing
her presence, Seth lifted his head and met her gaze with striking blue eyes. She
stiffened, waiting for the recognition to come.
“Are you
Grace?” he said, all innocence, as though he’d never seen her before.
Grace blinked
as realization struck. He didn’t recognize her. She should be thrilled by that
knowledge—elated, even. Not only did it give her the opportunity for a fresh start,
but it gave her the upper hand, in a way. Yet her annoyance won out. All this
time, she’d stewed about that night, relived it over and over in her mind, trying
to figure out where she went wrong and how she could have handled things
differently. While Seth, on the other hand, had apparently forgotten all about
her the moment she’d walked away.
She forced her
feet forward and lifted her chin. “I take it you’re Seth Tuttle?”
“I am.” He
grabbed the crutches at his side and hoisted himself up easily. Shooting the
receptionist a look, he said, “Hey, my friend’s parking the car right now. When
he comes in, would you mind telling him I’ve already gone in?”
“Of course. I
can send him back if you’d like.”
“No, I’m sure he’d
rather wait here.” Seth turned his attention to Grace and smiled. “So, you’re
Grace Warren. Dr. Ross tells me you’re the best PT in the Seattle area, which
I’m hoping is true. I want my knee back as soon as possible and need a PT who
can bring it.”
Whether it was
because he didn’t recognize her, or because he questioned her professional
skills, Grace bristled. “Dr. Ross is wrong.”
Seth raised
his eyebrows in question.
