About this book
When a woman breaks off her engagement and flees north to Charleston for a fresh start, the last thing she expects is a charming, impossibly sexy neighbor who keeps mysteriously appearing shirtless at her door—and somehow makes her believe she deserves more than the safe, suffocating life she left behind. As the chemistry between them sizzles hotter than the kitchen at his restaurant, she finds herself torn between the ambitious career and life she's built a thousand miles away and the intoxicating possibility of something real with Elijah. Their slow-burn connection deepens over a fateful cabin weekend, forcing her to confront the biggest question: Can she choose herself and take a chance on love, or will duty pull her back north? This is the kind of romance that celebrates second chances and reminds you that sometimes the best things in life are found when you stop running from what you think you're supposed to want.
