It's been said that building and love don't mix.
That reasoning makes hatred and building equally unacceptable.
When they were teenagers, LaRynn Lavigne and Deacon Leeds had one brief but tense summer romance.
Nothing, at least, to lay a foundation upon.
Ten years later, however, when their grandmothers bequeathed them joint ownership of their run-down Santa Cruz building, they are forced to reunite and must learn how to pick themselves back up.
LaRynn has the money, but she needs a marriage license to have access to her trust.
Deacon lacks the money, but he has the building experience.
They agree to be married for as long it takes to fix up the house, make a profit, and then call it quits.
They soon discover that it's simple to hide behind emotional ones, even in a marriage, after being thrust into a house without walls. They'll have to discover what it means to really work as a team, however, since living with someone of the opposite sex exposes you to all the risks and difficulties (and none of the benefits).
The Co-op is a seductive tale about remodeling and repair, as well as discovering everything that shapes our individuality. It's about enjoying each step of the never-ending building process that is a relationship.
