Andrew Brody, investment banker and self-made millionaire, has just lost his father, but gained an estate. Along with inheriting stocks, bonds, racehorses, and undeveloped land, he learns that he is now the owner of a hotel that has been in the family since 1875 and should probably just be torn down. Marissa Clark needs a new challenge - staging homes to sell and rearranging pictures on walls isn't what she dreamed of doing when she became an interior designer. When she gets a call asking her to help renovate a historical building, she leaps at the change - what a great way to use both her love of texture and fabric and her love of history. They believe they're just taking an old building and giving it a second chance at life . . . but they have no idea that they're getting a second chance too. The Brody Hotel is a spinoff of the bestselling series Kansas Crossroads by the same author.

Tabs Morrow is generally a fun-loving, easygoing kind of person - unless something gets under her skin, and nothing does that faster than a lying, two-faced jerk. She was excited to help with the interior decorating for the Brody Hotel until she came on site and saw who she'd be working with - Griffin Baker, the most two-faced of them all. Griffin knows he's made mistakes in the past, but he's been trying hard to change. The biggest mistake he ever made was not telling Tabs how he felt, and now fate has given him a second chance. The trick will be getting Tabs to give him a second chance too.
