When you manage the career of the most talented musician you've ever encountered, keeping things professional should be simple—except it's not, especially when your history with him burns too bright to ignore. Bristol has spent years building walls between herself and Marlon, the extraordinary artist she represents, but as his dreams finally come within reach, the carefully locked-away memories of their magical time together keep demanding to be remembered. With his star rising and her heart refusing to cooperate, Bristol has to decide if protecting herself matters more than the possibility of something real. A swoon-worthy second chance romance about the people who know us best and the love that refuses to stay buried.
