Adrian Reyes didn't expect her to show up in his hometown.
Maggie Frey didn't return to Honey Wine to see him-not this time.
Maggie and Adrian's casual arrangement should have flamed out long ago, except her best friend moved to his small town, and the sparks refused to die. But with sex off the table, she doesn't bother informing him she'll spend the summer in Honey Wine, recovering from her hysterectomy.
He's almost as surprised as she is when he accepts her limitations, and pitches in to care for her.
Maggie, at personal and professional crossroads, is tempted by Adrian's tender care and their smoldering chemistry. Adrian, spurred by Maggie's determined and courageous advocacy for herself against societal pressure, is fueled to confront his own family expectations.
During their stolen weeks together, they wrestle with once-hidden truths about the futures they'd envisioned. Each stripped layer of vulnerability fans embers that could scorch them both, but just might grow into a new flame of love like they've never known.
