No one knows for sure what happens on Isla del Corazón Roto, Heartbreak Island. No cell. No internet. No distractions. After being jilted at the aisle, Lucinda “Lucky” Moreno heads to the no-frills retreat to heal her broken heart, only to find herself battling not only her past and the elements, but the most annoying man she’s ever met. Five months after being dumped by her fiancé, Lucinda “Lucky” Moreno heads to an intense heartbreak recovery workshop. She’d thought giving up all modern conveniences and being away from home would be the hard parts, but that was before meeting the most arrogant, bullheaded man on the entire island. Maybe, on the planet. Ezequiel “Zeke” Hart’s funding of a renowned workshop on healing heartbreak isn’t entirely altruistic. He’s secretly hoping to discern what makes people fall in love, and if––as he’s long suspected––he might be too damaged for romance. He refuses to let the infuriatingly spontaneous Lucky Moreno derail his quest for the truth. Can a tightly-coiled control freak and an injured free spirit find the courage to love each other despite a lifetime’s worth of obstacles, their own deep-seated fears, and the cunning of a scheming ex?
