Enemies. Foes. Until one night changed them forever.The small town of Severton doesn’t have many secrets. One of the few is exactly why Scott Maynard, bar owner and search and rescue hero, refuses to speak, acknowledge or even breathe the same air as Keren Leigh.Keren has been Severton’s dentist for far too long and now she’s ready to move to the city, escaping the war with Scott and broadening … with Scott and broadening her dating circle in the hope of a future that doesn’t just consist of evenings at home alone with a book, ancient pyjamas and a glass of wine.
All it takes is a one-night ceasefire for all of her plans and their decade-long feud to be stirred up. But they’re not the only ones to be shaken: Severton has acquired its own arsonist and other secrets are being exposed, leaving a completely different battle to be fought.
Warning: contains alpacas, retired ladies who make their own gin and have an eye for younger gentlemen plus an alternate use for a bath.
This steamy small town enemies to lovers romance is part of the Severton Search & Rescue series but can be read as a stand-alone.

The first in the series made me buy this one. I have now just bought the third. And so on…
Another great story to this collection i had a feeling something was simmering between Scott and Keren from the last book but this surpassed my expectations! The love hate between them both was irritatingly funny and when the truth was finally revealed it was a relief to know the reason behind it and them finally hooking up was fire few twists and turns made it even better. Look forward to the next one
Loved all the parts of this story! The intrigue in this series is a nice little twist with the love story! It works well and you get that little extra that just adds to the read!
Keren and Scott’s story is wonderful and filled with its own mystery and sadness!
When you read a book by Annie you know your going to get all the emotions! She never disappoints!
A fabulously steamy enemies to lovers small town romance.
Dentist Keren Leigh loves her small town, her dental practice, and her friends. The only problem is the small town of Severton has a shortage of eligible men. And for a woman in her thirties, Keren feels like she won’t find someone to settle down with if she stays. All that changes when her one-time childhood friend turned surly bar owner decides to challenge that decision.
Stirred is a deliciously sexy read with just the right amount of sweetness for a perfectly played friends-to-enemies-to-lovers trope that will have you grinning from ear to ear.
Another really good, well written, page turner by Annie Dyer! I love Scott’s and Karen’s story! This book has it all! Sex, romance, and a touch of danger, all wrapped up in a HEA! This book is the second of the Severton Search & Rescue book series. If you have read Annie’s Callaghan Green book series, then you’ll get to see a few of the characters from that series in this book. That was something I loved about this book. Annie Dyer I can’t wait for your next book.
This book is amazing!! I loved going back to Severton and seeing the characters from Sleighed again was so wonderful!! I devoured this book and couldn’t put it down!! Scott is the perfect addition to my harem!
First book I have read from the writer. I will be completely honest. It took me a title but to get into this book. It wasn’t instantly gripping. It does have a great enjoyable story line and great characters. I love the second chance at love story line. These two should have been together a long time ago. But something someone said stopped that from happening. Will they get a chance this go round? I will be reading more from this author. Overall ended up being a great book. Enjoyable chemistry between all the characters.
This is one of those books that is a MUST read because you are taken to a small town called Severton and you will fall in love with it as well as towns people. Stirred is about two people who grew up together but something happened and they don’t like each other anymore but when the rubber meets the road these two come together like no other to help out their town and they become friends who find they have more than a friendship chemistry.
Keren is a dentist and she is leaving Severton because their is a shortage of men to be with and she has no idea what to do but she knows she is tired of being alone and not having things to do. Scott owns a bar and is happy with his life but he knows he is missing something but he just doesn’t know what it is.
When Keren and Scott get together their is off the chart chemistry and they become more than friends. This is a must read series or you could read them as standalones if you like but this is a must read series you have to read. So gone on ahead and one click this bad boy you won’t be sorry!
This is the 2nd book in this intriguing series, and is Scott and Keren’s turn. These two have been enemies for years, and Scott is a broody bar owner, and Keren is the towns’ dentist. Their story is a roller coaster journey from beginning to end, but can they deny their feeling and chemistry and move from enemies / lovers? No spoilers; this is a must read, you will not be disappointed. This is a well written flawless story, which is humorous, with witty banter, and filled with surprises and suspense. I look forward to reading more from this talented author, whose work I highly recommend for all.
Keren and Scott are explosive! They are a couple with so much buildup and history!
I loved everything about them, their anger towards one another, how they fought at every turn their attraction. It was all so well written.
Since it’s a second book we get a glance at all our couples and people from the first book.
I also really love the description of the towns-it’s so fun.
The titillating tension and toxic taunting between Keren and Scott had me hooked from Book 1 (Sleighed) so I was absolutely elated that their story was up next in this second book in the Severton Search & Rescue series! In true Annie Dyer fashion she took what I knew would be an amazing enemies-to-lovers story and completely consumed me with the raw and real intensity.
This book was funny and hot and had so many unexpected things happening!!! I loved to hear about Gran and Vanessa and the Callaghans. Also, love this quirky town and its inhabitants.
This book reminded me a little bit of Pippa Grant and Lucy Score’s books in terms of the town, its people, the funny, odd situations.
I love Annie’s work. I have loved, absolutely loved all of her books and at this point i think I’d buy her Books without needing to know anything about them, just that she is the author. I’m a big fan of hers and this book didn’t disappoint.
Another absolutely amazing story.
I loved the characters in this story so much. The storyline was fantastic and kept me interested and wanting more the whole way through. I found myself reading quicker but also not wanting to finish. My heart was in my mouth in places but I was also laughing at others. I can’t wait to read more in this series.
I was ready for this book before I even made it halfway through the previous Search and Rescue book. Scott’s character was the one that I had to know more about. I knew that it was going to be amazing, and I was correct. Every time I think I have a favorite book she releases another. The back story was sad and sweet at the same time. I needed Scott and Keren to be together since obviously I couldn’t have him. There is a slight touch of mystery interwoven in the books. Not enough to turn pure romance readers off, but enough for a change of pace. Come discover Severton, and you will not be sorry.
This book will have you in fits of laughter, worry, suspense, shaking your head in disappointment as well as wanting to shake both Scott and Keren silly with their stupid attitude. It was sad finding out why their friendship imploded and they changed to hating each other but it was good it came out and we also getting to know everyone even more along with and the Callaghans making an appearance which was awesome! I just love the way Annie writes as you get drawn into the world you are reading and feel the loss of them when you get to the end as your not ready to let go. I can not wait to read the next in the series and wonder if Jake will be the lucky one this time!
For years Scott and Keren have fought about everything. The two, once good friends, are definitely enemies and Keren is tired. Tired of the animosity, tired of no social life, tired of Severton. But one conversation and one steamy night change everything.
I loved this! Scott and Keren had amazing chemistry and you could just tell of they stopped fighting for two minutes they would be explosive. Great, quirky secondary characters and a lovely setting added to this fantastic book.
Stirred is the second in this series but can definitely be read as a stand alone. I am looking forward to more in this series!!
I loved Scott and Keren’s story. It was original, romantic, funny and a bit of suspense. The setting is beautiful and the characters are all entertaining.
I laughed and I cried through this one. I look forward to the rest of the stories.
Annie Dyer has created a fantastic world with wonderfully unique and intriguing characters set in a magical backdrop. Stirred is book 2 in the Severton Search and Rescue series and is the perfect follow up to Sleighed. Severton is a fictional small mountain town that is not only steeped in tradition, but filled with secrets. Book two is Scott Maynard’s book. Scott is Zack’s brother (we met Zack in book one). He is known for a few things; owning The Last Temperance Bar, but locals know it simply as Scott’s bar and his band. One other thing Scott is known for this his on-going war with Keren, the local dentist. Its a war that the two have waged since she was 18 and he was 21. She hasn’t a clue why and the years have simply ticked by, neither conceding. But is it really hate that fuels this feud or maybe something else?? I loved watching the relationship between these once friends to enemies to lovers develop. This book is funny, emotional and flat out sizzling in places. A few twists and turns keep you on the edge of your seat. Annie always leaves me wanting more and I can’t wait to see what is next for Severton and its residence.
What a steamy & charming friends to enemies to lovers story! Scott & Keren reunite after a 14-year stand off, and sparks fly! They’re surrounded by small-town characters you just want to hang with. I loved the element of mystery alongside the romance.
Severton books put a big smile on my face!
Wow wow wow…..what a story! So much goodness in this book. Long standing love-hate relationship=major chemistry. Scott and Keren are such easy characters to love. I was hooked from the first chapter. I love a book that continues to give us more of characters from a previous book or series and Annie Dyer gives us so much of that in this book. The characters and side characters in this book are interesting and mysterious and left me wanting their stories. There’s a mystery that began in Sleighed and continues in this book. I can not wait to get my hands on the next book in this series….plus I’m already ready for an update on Scott and Keren!
