A reformed hot mess and a thrill-seeker forced back to his hometown find their second (or maybe third or fourth?) chance in each other in this funny, sizzling contemporary romance.


Therapist Camila Moore isn't the girl she used to be. Divorced, correctly diagnosed, and (mostly) over her disastrous rebound, she's happier than ever. She's saying yes to MMA classes and meditation, and no to booze and drama. She'll be damned if she gets her big feelings wrapped up in a man - even a gorgeous, funny man like Zach Hoult, the jeweler she meets at an arts festival. Their flirtatious transaction leads to a karaoke invite, innuendo over ice cream, and a scorching goodnight kiss that leaves them wanting more.


But Zach shouldn't want more. He'd left Pittsburgh behind, until his estranged mother's death cut his international travels short and dragged him back to the city that broke his heart. He just has to get his sister to graduation and sell the family jewelry store, and he'll finally be free to do ... well, he's not sure what yet. But his sexy, smart new friend with benefits is a welcome distraction from making plans.


As Zach entices Camila out of her careful routines, and Camila cracks open Zach's guarded heart, their summer fling turns into something deeper. Separately, falling in love always brought out the worst in them, but maybe people can change.


Can two works in progress make it work? Or will passion this intense burn them both?
