From New York Times best seller Corinne Michaels and USA Today best seller Melanie Harlow comes a second chance stand-alone romance novel.

Ian Chase broke my heart at 17, and I've spent the last 18 years hating him for it. He makes it easy, with his smart mouth and playboy lifestyle - which I unfortunately have to observe since he lives behind me. Every time I see him climbing out of his pool, practically naked and unreasonably sexy, my blood boils.

I've always loved to loathe him. I never planned to need him.

London Parish is my little sister's best friend, not that it stopped me from falling for her. Our history is complicated. The only thing we have in common is being godparents to my sister's three adorable kids - until our lives are changed in one tragic moment. Now we're trying to raise the children we love, mourn an unthinkable loss, and fight an undeniable attraction.

My life is already upside down, and the last thing I need is for old feelings to resurface. Because I'll never be able to keep her, no matter how hard I try to hold her close.
