Ben doesn’t like to live in the past. Hell, he can barely handle living in the present. He’s got a demanding job working for the Department of Defense that keeps his body busy and exhausted so that he doesn’t think about the past at all.

And there she is, just as beautiful and remote and cutting as ever.
Except…she’s not remote at all. Has she changed her ways? He finds himself watching in fascinated disbelief as she seems to be trying to right her wrongs one by one. And she seems to think he’s one of them. Only if she’s ever wronged him other than being trouble with a capital T and mean as hell, he can’t remember…
Want more sexy, fun romance? Return to spellbinding Lucky Harbor, visit Sunshine, Idaho for some Animal Magnetism, or take a trip to Cedar Ridge’s unforgettable Colorado Mountains in Jill’s other bestselling series.
