A swoony billionaire, brother’s best friend romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix! Nash Reynolds is every woman’s dream. Just not mine. We’re talking tall, devastatingly hot, richer than sin, with a brain that could rule the world—and that Southern drawl? It could melt steel. But I’m not every woman, and those aren’t my toes curling. Nope. Definitely not. I don’t do charming. I don’t do complicated. And I definitely don’t do men like Nash—men who come sweeping in just when I’m trying to piece my life back together. My ex taught me love makes you stupid, and depending on a man only ends in disaster. So why does Nash keep showing up when I need him most? Why does his smile make me forget how to breathe? Why do I catch myself wondering… what if? He’s tempting, maddening, and just maybe, worth the risk. Because sometimes love isn’t a trap. Sometimes it’s the easiest thing in the world.
