In small-town Havenwood, Noah Patel is used to keeping his walls high and his life predictable. As a video game designer who prefers the company of pixels over people, Noah doesn't do spontaneous, flirty, or emotionally messy-especially when it comes in the form of Evan Mitchell, the charming, free-spirited waiter at The Rivermere Bistro. But when a chance encounter turns into something neither of them saw coming, Noah finds himself pulled into Evan's orbit, one teasing smile and lingering touch at a time. What starts as a slow burn of attraction soon crashes through Noah's carefully constructed defenses, leaving him vulnerable in ways he's never allowed himself to be. As late-night confessions, riverside adventures, and quiet moments turn into something deeper, Noah and Evan must decide if they're willing to risk the comfort of what's familiar for the unpredictable, beautiful chaos of falling in love. Glitches and Kisses is Grafton Carter's heartfelt second novel in The Havenwood Series-a tender, funny, and spicy exploration of love, trust, and learning to let someone in, even when you're sure you'll mess it up. Get ready for slow-burn chemistry, emotional vulnerability, and steamy scenes that turn up the heat in all the right ways.
