Twice Shy is a 2021 Rom Com novel written by American author Sarah Hogle.Maybell Parish's daydream about her very own bakery with her very own boyfriend is rudely interrupted. The help of her great-aunt Violet sought her out to tell her Violet died and left everything to Maybell.So Maybell does the reasonable thing, packs all her things, gets in her car, and drives to the Smokies to live in the house she loved so much as a child. But to her horror, not just is the house a hoarder's den, she learns she isn't the only inheritor. Wesley Koehler is already waiting with containers and garbage bags to turn her home into a sanctuary for animals. And he is not happy to see her.

Twice Shy: Literally the title of the book. Both Wesley and Maybell are into each other, but are way too shy to even talk with one another.

Workplace-Acquired Abilities: The irony that she gave up her job as a housekeeper to clean her great-aunts house for free is not lost on Maybell.

Real Men Eat Meat: Maybell believes this. When Wesley tells her that he is a vegetarian, she thinks he is pulling her leg and tries to catch him eat bacon before accepting his diet.

Treasure Map

comment
Treasure Map: Before his death, Victor left a treasure map between the Christmas Ornaments for Violet to find jewelry and pictures of them on their property, so she wouldn't grieve him too much. Sadly, Violet stopped celebrating Christmas after his death and never found the map. Maybell and Wesley discover it upon cleaning out the house and go on a day trip to cache the containers.

Contrived Coincidence: Gemma used pictures of Wesley to catfish Maybell. Apparently, they were colleagues at the golf club Gemma worked before she went on to Maybell's hotel and Wesley moved to the Smokies.

Cope by Pretending: Since Maybell is little, she pretends she has a Café where she sells all her homemade baked goods. Now that she is older, she also added a boyfriend.
