I may be back in my hometown and down on my luck, but I know better than to fall for Lyric again. Been there. Done that. Have the heartbreak to show for it. When my business and apartment burn down, there’s only one thing I can do—return to my hometown of Winter Falls with my tail tucked between my legs. I won’t be here long, though. As soon as the insurance company decides I didn’t start the fire—one little accidental fire to get out of a math test does not make me an arsonist!—and cuts me a check for the damage, I’m out of here.

I’m such an idiot. I thought Maverick was serious when he whispered sweet nothings in my ear. He talked me right out of my pants and straight into his bed. And when I woke up the next morning, he was gone. Lesson learned. No more listening or speaking to Maverick—regardless of whether he’s the owner of the wildlife refuge where I work. But someone’s not getting the hint. Oh no. Mr. Big Important Movie Star thinks the world revolves around him. If he wants something—or someone in this case—he’s going all out to get her. Good luck. I am not giving him a second chance. Because I know him.

I am perfectly content with my life. I have a loving (albeit nosy and interfering) family, a fulfilling career as an environmental engineer, and I enjoy living in my quirky hometown of Winter Falls. But then Beckett Dempsey is appointed CEO at the company I work at. For reasons I cannot fathom to understand, Beckett believes that I am incompetent. He also thinks I should be at his beck and call twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week. Unfortunately, Beckett is also the sexiest man I’ve ever met and my body yearns for his.

Have you heard the one about the workaholic who decides she deserves a night of fun with a sexy stranger? It’s supposed to be a short story. Except one night of fun changes everything. Owning and operating a bed and breakfast doesn’t leave me much time for men. Especially not men who aren’t from Winter Falls. Out-of-towners can’t be trusted. Trust me. I have the scars to prove it. Then Cole Hawkins saunters into the Inn on Main. One look at him and I light my rulebook about men and out-of-towners on fire before hurling it out the window.

I have loved Rowan since I was sixteen and he rushed in like my knight in shining football pads to save me from a bully. Now that I’m back in Winter Falls after graduating college, it’s time for me to make him mine. There’s only one problem. Rowan sees me as his little sister who needs protecting and not as a woman. There’s no problem too big I can’t overcome it, though. Even if it comes in the form of a stubborn six-foot-five former NFL quarterback.

When Claudette McPhearson died, she left eight foster children to fend for themselves after they discovered the truth about her secret life. She was the leader of the Syndicate, a criminal enterprise that had a stronghold on the underworld. Much to her children's chagrin, it was up to one of them to step up and take the lead.
