She just needs a place to stay. A better man wouldn’t take advantage. But I will… When my friend Jaxson talks me into hosting my high school ex-girlfriend for a few days, I’m not exactly thrilled. Katie might have had a good reason for breaking up with me—and I do consider college a good reason—but I can’t deny that the memory still stings. Yes, she’s in town for her aunt’s funeral, and yes, I know the Blue Sky Resort is renovating, but it still stings. The problem is, I forget all about it when she comes waltzing through the front door of our office. That’s my Katie. Gorgeous, sweet, nervous Katie. Now, a published romance author in need of a shirtless cover model… She wants me for the job, but I want her in return. How convenient that there’s only one bed in my house… This is an extended, spicier version of Declan, which was originally published in Seeds of A Romance Charity Anthology to Benefit Ukraine.
