He needed a nurse. He didn’t expect her to break his defenses all over again. Hard-nosed CEO James Taylor is desperate to find the right caregiver for his ailing mother. What he doesn’t expect is for Samantha Blake—his ex and the woman he hasn’t spoken to in nearly a year—to walk through the door and take the job. Living under the same roof reignites the fire they once shared. Passion simmers. Old wounds reopen. And the tension between them? Unbearable.

As physical intimacy blurs the lines between past hurt and present desire, buried emotions rise to the surface. James believes they’re rebuilding what was lost. But Samantha can’t shake the fear that loving him again might be her biggest mistake. Can they rewrite the ending to their love story—or will heartbreak strike twice?
