Willa Willis doesn’t need anyone. After years of self-discipline and staunch routines, she’s curated the life she always wanted. Her photography studio is a proud middle finger to her estranged family and everyone else who doubted her. But even a self-made woman has to let loose once in a while. A birthday trip is exactly the break she needs, until Mr. Too Perfect shows up.

Trevor Jones lives life on the bright side. Despite a harrowing childhood, the former Coast Guardsman doesn’t sweat the small stuff and never holds a grudge—except for one. When the past comes back to haunt him, a weekend getaway serves as the perfect distraction. Running into the woman of his dreams is icing on the cake.

Convinced they’re incompatible, Willa refuses to give him the time of day. Trevor’s determined to prove her wrong. When they end up in the same bar, one flirty encounter leads to an unforgettable night together. But the next morning she’s gone, forcing him to grapple with unanswered questions and radio silence.

Willa’s intent on leaving the past where it is...until two little pink lines shake up all her plans.
