When your college enemy becomes your hero.
Nick Atherton thought his life was exactly where he wanted it—until he walked into a bookstore and saw Poppy Sylvester again. She’s a past regret he’s never been able to forget. When she’s attacked in front of him, Nick steps in to protect her, only to realize this wasn’t a random assault. Poppy has been dodging trouble for years. She needs his protection—and the only way to keep her safe is to move her into his home. But this time, Nick knows he has no intention of letting her go.
Nick’s reappearance in Poppy’s life changes everything…suddenly she’s no longer alone, like she has been for so long. The boy she knew is now a man who is hard to resist. As their connection deepens, she feels her resistance weakening and fears the threat to her is now a threat to him—but Poppy knows that walking away this time will take courage she’s not sure she has.
Can Nick convince Poppy that their second chance is worth fighting for?
