She's got great friends, a cool dad (or so he thinks), and a whole lot ahead of her. She understands that her first kiss is a rite of passage, one that she takes very seriously, even if everyone around her doesn't. She wants it to be special-true love's kiss-and wants to fall for someone she really cares about, not just get it over with. Then her best friend Patrick challenges Sara to a bet that will either lead to love or heartbreak. Or maybe embarrassment? Maybe all three. And the more he teases her, the more she wants to prove him wrong . . . that maybe her first kiss can be memorable and special and fun and life changing.

After fleeing her abusive ex in the middle of the night, Chloe Dawson arrives in a small coastal town with nothing but a duffel bag, a crying six-month-old baby, and the last of her savings. She rents a tiny apartment where the walls are paper-thin. Next door lives Sergeant Mason Kane, disciplined, exhausted, emotionally closed off, and currently on leave between military assignments. After years in the army, silence is the only thing that helps him sleep. Then the baby starts crying every night. At first, Mason is irritated. Chloe is terrified of him. Every knock on the door reminds her of the man she escaped.
