Dean Di Laurentis has built his life exactly the way he wants it.
Hockey. Parties. Women.
Preferably a different one every night, and absolutely no false expectations the next morning. Relationships are complicated, feelings are even more complicated-and Dean has no intention of getting involved in anything that could actually mean something to him.
Until Zoe arrives at Briar.
After the early death of her mother, Grace became more than just her best friend-she became her sister, and Grace's family became Zoe's family. Starting over at Briar is supposed to mean one thing above all else for Zoe: college, dancing, and finally regaining control over her life.
Men rank pretty low on her list.
Dean Di Laurentis isn't on it at all.
Through Grace and Logan, Zoe finds herself right in the middle of a close-knit group that also includes Garrett, Hannah, Tucker-and, of all people, Dean.
Grace explicitly warns her about him.
Zoe has no intention of ignoring that warning.
Until one lingering look turns into one night.
Just one.
A mistake no one ever has to know about.
But once becomes twice. Then three times.
So Dean and Zoe keep whatever is happening between them a secret-from their friends, from Grace, and maybe even from themselves.
Because the more nights they spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend that none of it means anything.
Zoe sees sides of Dean that he never shows anyone else. And Dean begins to recognize the wounds hidden beneath her confident exterior-the ones she never talks about.
For the first time, one night isn't enough for him anymore.
For the first time, Dean doesn't want just any woman.
He wants her.
But Zoe has learned how dangerous it is to give someone enough of yourself to let them hurt you.
Maybe pushing Dean away is easier than finding out whether he could actually be the one person she can trust with her heart.
Because some dreams become dangerous the moment you start wishing they might come true.
