Connie Broadbent loves to run away from her mistakes.
So when her glossy Hollywood life turns into a tabloid nightmare on the eve of her twenty-ninth birthday, she does what she knows best and books a one-way ticket back to Marsford Bay.
But even her hometown isn’t safe from her past blunders—namely, a year-old impulsive one-night stand with a broody ex-con.
Huxley McKenna believes that his past will haunt him forever.
At just eighteen, his life irrevocably changed when a rash decision landed him in prison.
Now twenty-five, Huxley is determined to move on from his delinquent past.
Despite his cynicism, he stays out of trouble and gets a job in construction to pay the bills.
But there’s one thing from his past that he can’t seem to evade: Connie Broadbent.
A seemingly impossible task when his older brother is engaged to her best friend.
However, their plan to ignore each other fails when Connie buys a rundown theatre and is cornered into hiring Huxley, thanks to a little persuasion from her best friend.
Wanting to keep their shared past a secret, the two reluctantly agree to work together.
This inevitably leads to infuriating mind games and messy push-and-pulls, both too stubborn to give in to their attraction.
But soon, they will be forced to face the truth: some mistakes might be worth making twice.
