After one wild night together, two complete opposites plan to stay firmly in the friend zone, but life has other plans in this delightful romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Abby Jimenez.
As a successful book publicist, Imani Lewis works night and day to promote her authors. It's her dream job, but she's become a total workaholic. So when her grandmother invites her to stay for the summer as she recovers from surgery, Imani happily agrees. But, being back in the same small town as her one-night stand may not be quite the relaxing break she envisioned...
Zander Matthews wakes up every day determined to enjoy the present because he knows from his time in the Marines that tomorrow isn't guaranteed. But, he's never gotten over the beautiful woman who blew through town a year ago, then disappeared. And, he doesn't want to be hurt again. So they agree to a deal: he'll help Imani fix up her grandmother's house as long as they stay firmly in the friend zone.
Whether it's repairing tiles in his ceramics studio, dodging nosy neighbors, or soothing the most obnoxious parrot ever, Zander never fails to make Imani laugh. And, soon their friendly banter is turning ever flirtier. But, since Imani's stay is temporary and Zander can't be tied to anything beyond the most tenuous plans, will she be able to handle it when things get all fired up?
