Jason Sloan is Harper’s Crossing’s resident bad decision.
Whiskey eyes, lazy grin, and a reputation that makes mothers nervous and women curious. Certified flirt. Small-town heartbreaker. Walking temptation in a Henley. He’s never had to try too hard, equal parts charm and charisma that makes him irresistible.
Everyone falls for him.
Everyone except Katie Lawson.
She didn’t fall. She ran.
Ten years ago, Katie left town in the middle of the night after her high school boyfriend’s funeral, putting every piece of her old life in the rearview—especially Jason Sloan, her best friend… and the boy she never really stopped loving.
Now the blonde beauty is back in Harper’s Crossing for the first time in a decade. Maid of honor. Temporary stay. Strictly controlled schedule. Absolutely no reminiscing of the past.
Which would be easier… if Jason Sloan wasn’t the best man.
Still infuriatingly charming. Still too familiar. Still looking at her like she’s the only woman he’s ever wanted.
Katie built a life around rules, order, and distance. Jason never respected any of those things.
Jason knows Katie’s hiding behind her busy life and sharp tongue. He also knows she still blushes when he calls her Kit-Kat.
And this time?
He’s not letting her run.
A steamy second-chance rom com packed with forced proximity, small-town charm, banter-heavy tension, meddling wedding antics, slow-burn heat, and a hero who decides waiting ten years means he’s already earned her.
