Sophie Reed is hollow. After her long-term boyfriend traded her in for a newer model, she's done with "forever." She wants one night of reckless, messy, unscripted fun. No names, no feelings, no heartbreak. Eli Davis wasn't part of the plan. He's the guy with the dangerous smirk and the reputation that should have sent her running. Instead, she finds herself in his bed, discovering that behind the player persona is a man who knows exactly how to put her back together.

He's done being her secret. And he's about to show her that some rules were made to be broken.
