About this ebook

He's a big grumpy mountain man who prefers his peace and quiet.

And I'm his noisy new neighbor.

 

My favorite grandmother leaves me enough money in her will to start over from a laundry list of failed ventures.

So when the Deepwood Inn comes up for sale, I jump at the opportunity to finally do something to make her proud.

Too bad I'm in way over my head.

As the problems stack up, my hopes of running a successful B&B turn into a nightmare.

Now I'm low on funds, and Sully O'Neill, the hot older grump of a plumber next door, is on the warpath.

If only I could get him to fix my pipes instead of grumbling about all the racket.

When he finds out I can cook, we strike a deal.

And it comes with more benefits than just laying the pipe at the Inn.

But can a connection built on dumplings keep a surly recluse and a social butterfly together…forever?

 

Welcome to Deepwood Mountain, Montana, a small town where six best friends with big dreams went from blue-collar bad boys to big-shot millionaires. But you know what they say about success… It's lonely at the top. All these men need is a woman to claim, protect, and treat like a queen. Are you ready for the mountain men of Deepwood?

 

His Big Pipe is a short, steamy, instalove romance with a determined but slightly scatterbrained heroine and a hunky grouch of a hero who find solace in Chinese food, well laid pipes, and each other.

    His Big Pipe - Lexi Hayes

    CHAPTER 1

    SULLY

    Six letter word for collide with .

    The sun bounces diamonds of light off the gentle waves of Deepwood Lake as I squint down at my phone. I don’t need my glasses to see the crossword puzzle. It’s just really bright out here, that’s all.

    Yeah, let’s go with that.

    Impact!

    I type the answer into the boxes, much too slowly. Fine. I’ll go and get my glasses.

    When I come back out, I settle into the comfy new Adirondack chair my buddy Logan made for me and grab a slice of my lunch. Frozen pizza again. Terrific.

    Yuck. How can something be both mushy and stale at the same time? Not to mention bland.

    I toss it back on the plate. Maybe I should learn how to cook…

    Oh. Right. Because I burn toast.

    Birds chirp as they flit through the trees and a family of ducks swims across the water. It’s the kind of day I built this house for. Sunny…peaceful…the only sounds from the animals, the water, and the wind.

    I lean back in the chair and close my eyes⁠—

    THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

    The birds take flight in a flurry of chaos.

    Goddammit! I bark, jumping up.

    The noise is coming…of course…from the property next to mine. Ever since that woman bought the Deepwood Inn and moved to town two weeks ago, she’s been renovating at all hours of the day.

    I’ve already left two strongly worded notes on her door to keep it down.

    BANG! BANG! BANG!

    Jeesus.

    I tug on my baseball cap and trudge through the forest toward the Inn.

    With each step, as the noise gets louder, I get angrier.

    By the time I reach the front door, I’m fuming, ready to give her a piece of my mind. Not to mention a few more choice words.

    Just as I raise my fist to knock, the tell-tale sound of rushing water comes from inside.

    Nooooooo! Stop! Shit!! a woman yells, and then there’s more banging.

    Pipes.

    I pound on the door. Hello? Are you okay in there?

    Help! she cries. Screw it. I barge into the front room. I can hear her and the water in a room on the left. Probably the kitchen.

    I burst through the doorway.

    The woman is drenched from head to toe and desperately holding onto the faucet as it sprays water in all directions. Everything’s wet - the floor, the counter, the windows. Her.

    But even half-drowned, this woman is stunning. She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.

    Long black hair, petite frame, sweet little tits, and a mere handful of ass.

    I’m frozen in place.

    Little help here?! she yells over the sound of the water when she sees me.

    Where’s the main water shut-off? I holler back, shaking off my surprise.

    Basement! Ack! She gets another spray in the face. Straight back, to the right.

    I fly down the stairs to the basement to shut off the water. I bound back up, taking the steps three at a time, and find her leaning over the sink. Her body is heaving with her ragged breath as she pushes her wet hair out of her face.

    Thank you, she says, turning to face me. She blinks rapidly, droplets of water on her eyelashes, lips parted. I can only gaze back at her, rendered speechless.

    When she finally tears her eyes away from me, she scans the kitchen. It might as well be a swimming pool. It’s a complete mess.

    Oh god, she groans.

    Then her pretty
