The only thing worse than being roommates with my rival?

Falling for him.

Returning to my small hometown after I crash and burn in the city is bad enough. Having my lifelong rival, Wes Stryker rub it in my face doesn’t make it easier.

Even worse, I’m hired to help him pull his family’s distillery out of a rough patch. Oh, and I’m forced to be his roommate. And that means dealing with his annoying flirting and one-upping all day, every day.

He’s unbearably cocky, and his dimpled smile charms everyone with a pulse – except for me.

At least until he starts to make me ugly laugh and I see glimpses of his big heart under the side he shows everyone else. Resisting him when he wanders around the house in nothing but sweatpants, undressing me with his eyes? Not possible.

But I’ve sworn off charmers like him and the last man I let into my heart destroyed my confidence and my career. I won't make that mistake again.
