Five years ago, I left my fiance, hotter than hot Navy SEAL Kade Kelly, at the altar. No, I'm not an idiot. Yes, I had my reasons. Now I've made a new life for myself working at a large firm in Richmond and I've left the past behind. Or so I thought. Upon returning to my hometown of Serenity Point, Virginia, to take care of some business, I find that Kade's now home for good and he's none too happy about my being here. Two months. That's all I'm staying then I'm out of here. Unless I believe the town's pink-haired psychic's prediction. Or embrace the sense of belonging I feel at being back...

Gable Powers had all the makings of everything my father had ever warned me about: a reputation that was anything but stellar, a dirty mouth that had me shivering at the things he uttered in my ear, and a body (oh, God, that body) that was covered in tattoos, all of which added up to a solid ten-point-oh on the bad-boy scale. The first time I met him, I instantly loathed him. The second time was even worse. He was a jerk. He was an ass. He had secrets. He was nothing I thought I ever wanted. So why couldn't I resist him? New adult. Not recommended for readers under 17.

Zeke Powers should've come with a warning label. He was hot. He was sexy. And he was a bad boy through and through. The things he said to me had me blushing and my toes curling. But he was someone I totally didn't need walking into my life, screwing up the plans I'd made and turning my world upside down. Although I'd been living a no-frills, no-fun existence, I felt it was necessary to get where I was going. Keep your eye on the prize and all that. But Zeke was determined to prove to me that what I desired most-him-was just what I needed.

Does wanting to slap the hell out of Brody Kelly make me a bad person? How about setting his hair on fire? No, I'm not a psycho. Yes, I AM angry. See, a year ago, my sweet and sexy firefighter boyfriend and I broke up over something extremely ridiculous. We'd been together since we were sophomores in high school, but that was the end of that. Almost twelve years of that, mind you. The looks he gives me tell me he still wants me. Our latest encounter has me thinking he's trying to win me back. But I'm not willing to give in so easily. I don't know why he used our argument as an excuse to break...
