Prodigal son Lucas Dempsey reluctantly returns home to Anchor Island. Following his father’s heart attack, the whole Dempsey clan has to step up to keep the family restaurant afloat. For Lucas this means putting family first and his quest to make partner at his high-powered law firm on hold.

Tough-as-nails boat mechanic Sid Navarro is happy to trade her tools for an apron to help the Dempseys in their time of need - until she realizes she’ll be spending her days alongside Lucas, the man she’s loved from afar since high school. Playful verbal sparring leads to a smoldering but temporary summer fling that has them both falling hard within weeks.

When the time comes for Lucas to return to his life in the big city, a place where Sid would never fit in, the lovers face a challenge neither saw coming. Do they ignore their feelings and walk away, or sacrifice their dreams to follow their hearts?

Up to the Challenge is a sexy, fast-paced, romantic story of family, island life, and finding love in unexpected places.

This is the first book in Archer Island series and I know that it will be my favourite. I loved the Sidney character, she is not only a woman who knows what she wants but her dropping of the F bombs right, left and centre really made me laugh. Loved the banter between Sid and Lucas. There were some really funny laugh out loud moments between Sidney and Lucas and glad they found their HEA. Great narration by Ruby too. Well done Ms Osburn👏🏽👏🏽

Loved it 😊
