Southern Seducer

When a retired football star invites his best friend and her baby to his family's luxury resort for a relaxing getaway, he's convinced it's a foolproof plan—until he realizes keeping his distance (and his hands to himself) is going to be nearly impossible. Beau's been harboring feelings for Annabel for years, but with a secret that could change everything between them and a determination to be the steady support she needs, he's set on staying in the friend zone. Of course, bonfire nights and bourbon have a way of loosening even the best-laid plans, and when the truth starts unraveling, neither of them can ignore the spark that's been smoldering all along. This is a swoon-worthy, emotionally rich romance about second chances and discovering that sometimes your person was there all along.
