Rose West thought a change of scenery might spark her next novel-but she never expected it to come in the form of palm trees, stadium lights, and one brooding baseball captain back in her home state Miami. At 23, Rose is a romance writer with a loyal online following and a serious case of writer's block. Hoping Miami's heat can melt away her creative freeze, she agrees to let loose this summer to travel with her Dad and his Baseball team.
Tanner Parker-27, team captain, and as emotionally guarded as he is physically flawless. On the field, he's laser-focused and impossible to ignore. Off the field? He's an enigma wrapped in a game face, with no time for distractions... especially not ones with messy buns, sarcastic comebacks, and notebooks full of fictional love stories.
But when fate keeps throwing them into each other's paths-from dugouts to late-night rooftop talks-walls begin to crack. And what starts as reluctant banter turns into undeniable chemistry neither of them saw coming.

She was supposed to leave him behind. Instead, he followed her home - with a grin and a proposition she can't seem to refuse. • • • Leon Collins has an uncanny resemblance to temptation - and Charlotte Hudson knows better than to touch it twice. As maid of honour to her best friend and sister-in-law-to-be, Charlotte's only job is to keep the wedding week flawless.

One she promises herself she won't ever revisit. But now they're walking down the aisle together, tension simmering under every glance, every brush of skin, every drunken confession that never should've left her lips.

Now he's in her office, in her space, and in her head - all charm, smirks, and a proposition that shouldn't sound as tempting as it does. One rule. No feelings. Just a physical arrangement to burn off the heat neither of them can seem to ignore. But desire this dangerous doesn't play by the rules. And the closer Charlotte gets to Leon, the more her carefully built walls begin to crack. She promised herself she'd never fall for him again.
