After a moment, he pulled away from the kiss, allowing me to breathe. I took in gasps of air, my head lowered as I tried and failed to fight the blush that stained my cheeks.

It wasn't long before I threw my arms around his neck, pulling him down for another mind blowing kiss that made my toes curl.

From there, it became a wild blur.

Natalie Thornton was happy. Her fiance was a fairly popular author, she was the unofficial president of her own book club, and the flowers in her yard were blooming despite the colder seasons approaching.

It all comes crashing down when Devin, her fiance, is caught on video traipsing about with his lips on some unknown female. Now, not only is Natalie out of a long term relationship, she's being made fun of by the media for allowing the whole thing to happen right under her nose. Suddenly, her easygoing life is riddled with pity and humiliation.

How could someone ever recover from something so embarrassing as having their future husband cheat three weeks before the wedding? Easy. Get a rebound.

Blake Coleman is a womanizer that is popular among multiple film industries. His dark stare and smirk can get just about any woman to fall for him, and yet he remains untamed.

When these two extremely different people find each other, they form an unlikely alliance that could possibly benefit them both. With the help of Blake, Natalie may just be able to get the media to talk about something else other than her ignorance and regain her reputation as a desirable woman in the process. But what happens when an act starts to feel like the real thing?
