Deserted tropical island, hunky male models. Sole female photographer. Everything is on track for Abby Haines to please her sleazy boss and win the make-or-break photography contest of the year so she can prove herself to the wealthy parents who’ve disowned her, keep the career she loves, and oh yeah. Eat.
That is, until the past love of her life shows up.
Army reserve soldier and contractor Dare Logan gets things done. But life just ratcheted up a few degrees for the guy from the wrong side of the track. If he doesn’t kowtow to the creepy shoot director, he can’t save his fledgling renovation business and take care of his mom and sister. And now he’s got to deal with Abby - the woman who broke his heart, proving that what he could provide for her wasn’t enough. Super.
But when they’re sent on a dangerous trek across the island and fate plays with their deeply-entrenched principles and worse, their hearts, choices will have to be made, and the stakes are no longer simple.
He’s bound by rules.
She’s desperate for freedom.
And when they meet on a back road, it’s a meeting neither wants to repeat. Ever again.
But fate has different ideas…
Danica needs to get away from it all–just for a few days. So when she visits her best friend in the northern town of Jack’s Bay, she expects peace and quiet. But she gets anything but. When her friend Abby is unexpectedly called away, she finds herself smack in the middle of contractor Dare Logan’s construction team. It seems rude to avoid them, and their well-meaning efforts to made sure she’s not lonely.
But she'll make an exception in the case of Parker Bowles.
Parker Bowles has a heart as big as the northern Ontario outdoors he loves so much. But Danica has the wrong idea of him–on sight, and he can't convince her otherwise. He doesn’t agree with her strong and outspoken assessment of him, yet he can’t help but keep a special eye on the lonely, yet unpredictable Danica from NY, before she leaves to go back to the Big Apple.
But it takes an unexpected night in a park to show both of them that it was worth taking a second look.
