Being a part-time student doesn't pay the bills. Maisie Howe works as a stand-in gardener for her landlord's father to cover rent. Only she's not studying landscaping, and the older man who watches from his office window has an idea of how her time on the clock could be better spent.
Maxime Dupont has a lot of stress he needs relieved. And when the girl from his office window is all too willing to leave the hot sun and spend time in his air-conditioned house, warming his bed, it all seems a little too perfect.
Maisie finds she keeps coming back for more. Hiding flushed cheeks behind closed doors, late night messages, and lingering touches, she wants a man she can't have.
And it sucks, but what's a girl gonna do when rent's due?
