As a single dad, I don’t believe in happily ever afters anymore. I’ve been there, done that, got the T-shirt and the divorce decree to go with it. My priorities are my daughter and my job as Gossamer Falls’ police chief, in that order. I don’t date. Meaningless sex with tourists? Yeah. Sure. I do that. So when the sexiest woman I’ve ever laid eyes on walks into my brother’s bar one snowy night, I know that anything between us will be one night only. And I have a rule for one night stands: they don’t need to know that I’m a dad. And yet I find it hard to walk away from Rachel Crawford the next morning. She’s smart, funny, and warm. The chemistry between us is insane. Undeniable. For the first time in a long time, I want more. And lucky for me, she gets a flat tire on the way out of town, which leads to flirty texts that turn into ridiculously hot sexts. She’s coming back to Gossamer Falls for work in two weeks, and I’m counting down the seconds.
