Katherine Rigby lives an average life. She's a twenty-something curvy bartender who works and then works some more. If she isn't working at Point B, then she's hanging out in her robe in her house just eating some ice cream and wondering what her friend, Marisol, is going to drag her to do next.
Kirby has felt eyes on her for some time, but she never pays it much attention. Chalks it up to working at a seedy bar where the regulars occassionally try to cop a feel. One night, a regular does just that and a god of a man, complete with blonde hair that hangs to his shoulders and tattoos up the expanse of his arms, comes to her rescue, threatening the guy in one sentence while also causing her to swoon in the same breath.
But there's something about Dominic that Kirby feels is off? He knows about her, really knows about her and some details of her life she hasn't ever shared with anyone. He calls her, texts her, all without her giving him her number. Dominic is possessive, abrasive, but oh so criminally hot that Kirby can't decide if she should run or fall right into his arms.
Just when she thinks she has a hold on the situation, Marisol drags Kirby out to a new nightclub in town where she happens to meet a tall stranger with rings on his fingers and lust in his eyes. Alecsander is a tall drink of water and the exact opposite of the commandeering Dominic that Kirby has had a rough time with. Just as she's about to leave with Alecsander, Dominic shows up and Kirby's world gets turned upside down once again.
With multiple people after her and her options quickly changing and closing, what, or more likely, who will Katherine choose to help her get through the danger and deceit that lies ahead?
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
