Review Card & Book Review – The Reluctant Flirt By Jennifer Probst

Just one night…

After discovering her husband’s affair, Sierra Lourde flees to New York City for a little damage control—and a lot of wine. A tipsy night in a bar with a charming stranger seems like the perfect way to forget her troubles. No names, no promises, just one night to escape reality and regain her confidence. The next morning, mortified by her vulnerability, she flees without looking back. But who needs closure, right?

But one night changes everything…

Sierra has reinvented herself as the proud owner of Flirt, a trendy boutique in the Outer Banks. Life is good—until Kane Masterson, the man she left behind, walks back into town. And of course, he’s now the developer whose big new project threatens to bulldoze her beloved shop. Kane needs this deal to save his career (and his brother), but Sierra’s not about to let him demolish her hard-won success.

With sparks flying, sarcastic jabs turning into lingering looks, and a family wedding forcing them into close quarters, Sierra and Kane find themselves tangled in a battle of wills—and hearts. But now he has to choose: reclaim his career or risk everything for a second chance with the one woman he can’t forget.

About The Author

My Review

Sierra Lourde is a woman reclaiming her life after betrayal, and her no-strings encounter with a charming stranger in a New York bar is her first bold step forward. That stranger turns out to be Kane Masterson—smooth, confident, and impossible to forget. Fast forward four years, and Sierra is now the proud owner of Flirt, her beachside boutique. The last person she expects to see walk through the door? Kane, again. But this time, he’s not just a blast from the past—he might be the very person who could destroy everything she’s built.

The chemistry between Sierra and Kane leaps off the page. Kane barrels into her life like a bull in a china shop—determined, relentless, and completely swoon-worthy. I loved that Sierra held her own and challenged him every step of the way. Their dynamic was fun, fiery, and emotionally grounded.

The premise—a second chance at love born from a one-night connection—was compelling and well-executed. Probst captures the magic of a fated love story without veering into the overly sweet or cliché.If you’re a romantic at heart and enjoy stories about strong women, determined heroes, and the kind of fate-driven love that makes you believe in second chances, The Reluctant Flirt is for you. It’s heartfelt, humorous, and satisfyingly sexy—a true contemporary gem.
