Fall Shook Up is a cozy, autumn-inspired, grumpy/sunshine small-town romantic comedy about a reclusive artist and a nosey journalist who just can’t seem to stay away from him…

The grumpy recluse begrudgingly rents me his guest house if I agree to leave him alone. Too bad I've never been good at doing what I'm told.

I am in desperate need of a place to live when my ex-boyfriend unceremoniously kicks me out weeks before a huge break in my career. Things look hopeless until I find a listing for a home that would be perfect, complete with a concise list of dos and don’ts. All I have to do is ignore the alarmingly good-looking owner, Levi, and follow his strict rules.

As the days pass and I continue to push boundaries, it gets harder to avoid his sweet compassion, capable hands, and attractive glower. The lines of our strict owner/tenant relationship continue to blur as the truth behind his protective shell is uncovered.

Can I let him be or will my instincts for information trample the intense attraction growing between us?

I'm under deadline, over my head, and (F)all shook up thinking about Levi.
