About the book

My brother's best friend just walked into my bar after breaking my heart six years ago—and he's still devastatingly handsome enough to make me wish I didn't hate him.

The last thing I need is Cody Maxwell back in my life. I've got a bar to run, a sick father to care for, and enough shattered dreams to last a lifetime.

But when he suggests a one weekend fling, I start to wonder if this is my chance to finally get him out of my system once and for all. A weekend of passion—no strings attached—and then I can move on with my life. Simple, right?

Wrong.

His heated kisses make me crave forever. His possessive touch reminds me why no other man has ever compared. And the way he looks at me... God, I'm in so much trouble.

It was supposed to be just one weekend, but my traitorous heart didn't get the memo.

How am I supposed to survive watching him walk away again when one weekend will never be enough?
