I am so done with men, especially rich ones who look down on me because I clean homes and wait on tables for a living. When I meet my brother's new boss, Holden Pierce, I don’t expect him to be so... delicious. I don’t want to fall for Holden, but those soft blue eyes are hard to resist. He’s not like the other men I’ve dated. He prefers hiking and camping over country club memberships, and home-cooked meals over fancy restaurants. He’s a responsible mentor to my brother. And he smells like a pine forest and rugged man. Falling for him is too easy. He makes me laugh. He makes me feel cherished. But Holden is keeping secrets from me. Now I have to find out if he truly is the easy-going man I fell in love with, or if it is a trap that I’d fallen into once again.
