A wild night leads to the love of a lifetime in this spicy, soul-stirring new romance by Alexandria House!

R&B legend Joel \"Messiah\" Bell has spent three decades at the top of the music industry—but lately, he's the internet's favorite punchline. Left at the altar, he's hiding out in Romey, Tennessee, nursing his wounded pride. The last thing he expects is to find himself in a wine bar, pouring his heart out to a gorgeous, free-spirited casual acquaintance who has zero interest in performing for anyone.

Ginger Day just ended a relationship with yet another lover who couldn't handle her authenticity. She's planned a solo journey across the country to rediscover herself—but after too much wine and an undeniable connection with Messiah, she finds herself on a plane to Vegas instead.

In the wake of their spontaneous decision, neither of them can deny that what they have feels like kismet…and neither of them wants it to end. Will two people who impulsively chose each other ultimately decide to choose each other every single day?
