A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Monica Murphy comes a sweltering summer romance you won't be able to put down. Includes a gorgeous foiled cover and sprayed edges.
Twenty-two-year-old heiress Rachel Henderson has one goal this summer: hide out at her family's lake house and recover from the most mortifying breakup Manhattan society has ever witnessed. Sun, swimming, and zero paparazzi--what could go wrong?
But her quiet summer by the lake goes up in literal flames when a spa-day candle mishap sets her mother's designer curtains on fire. When the local fire department shows up--specifically the ridiculously hot fire captain--the house is saved, but the captain scorches her pride with a lecture about fire safety.
Determined to prove she can handle life on her own without her family's help, Rachel finds a new roommate and a new job--too bad she's terrible at it. Oh, and she keeps running into Captain Tall-Dark-and-Infuriating (which definitely isn't a hardship). The more time they spend together, the more their conversations start to get real, and Rachel finds herself falling for Wyatt. She thinks he might even feel the same way.
The only problem? Wyatt is all about roots and permanence, while Rachel is the very definition of flighty. But this summer, she just might be tempted to stay ...

She is a wife and mother of three who lives in Central California on fourteen acres in the middle of nowhere, along with their four cats and one crazy dog.

Review Quotes:
"Murphy's playful prose complements her taut plotting and the sex scenes smolder. Meanwhile, an endearing supporting cast--especially Wyatt's playboy brother, Nate, Paige's longtime crush--adds emotional ballast. Readers are sure to be titillated."
