He's twice her age, her best friend's dad, and the last man she should want. But out here on the ranch, rules don't stand a chance against desire. After a painful breakup, Harper escapes to the Hawke family ranch to clear her head. She expected fresh air, familiar routines, and a little peace. What she didn't expect was Graham Hawke-gruff, brooding, and devastatingly handsome-to see her as anything more than his daughter's childhood friend. But he does. And once Harper notices the way his gaze lingers a little too long... she can't stop wanting more. He's tried to ignore the slow burn between them. Tried to remember she's off-limits. But when one stolen kiss shatters the fragile boundary between them, all bets are off. Their connection is dangerous. Their chemistry is explosive. And if anyone finds out, it could destroy everything.

Claire Kensley died just one week after her wedding to Drake. But instead of facing the King of Hell, her soul was transported into a novel-one that revolved around a switched-at-birth heiress and a life built on lies. Because of her pure and ungreedy soul, she was chosen by the heroine's system and given a task: temporarily take over the heroine's body while the real heroine experienced life in another world. When the heroine returned, Claire was granted a second chance- To be reborn. Back to the day of her engagement. This time, she refuses to follow the same path. With the bitter memories of her past marriage, Claire decides to change her fate... and chooses a different man- Her brother's best friend, Alex.
