Tori:
Jack Massey broke my heart. He was jealous and possessive. We were all wrong together—too engrossed, too greedy for one another…like we were each other’s fix.
We made no sense. He’s a stuffy, number-cruncher from a wealthy family, and I’m a hot mess from a trailer park. We’d never work long-term.
He says he wants me back. He needs to let the past stay behind us. I’ve worked too hard this year to get over him. I’ve thrown myself into my work with the kids at the resort. I’ve nurtured friendships with my amazing co-workers. I even tried another relationship. Though Jack’s never left my head or my heart.
Jack:
I screwed up. I’ve paid the price this past year. I quit drinking and became obsessed with my job and working out. I’ve not so much as looked at another woman. Tori’s all I’ve been able to focus on, even after a year
I want her back. It’s not going to be easy. We come from different worlds, and she makes sure I know it at every turn.
I’ve never failed at anything in my life except for my relationship with her, and I don’t intend to lose at that again.

He stands up and holds his hand out to me. “Well, I’m not ready to let this go. Come into the water with me.”
I wipe the sand off my hands and then take his hand. He pulls me up, and I follow him into the surf.
“Wow, look at that sunset,” he says.
I’m embarrassed that I hadn’t even noticed. I’ve been too caught up in him. “That’s a beautiful one.”
“Do you know what they say about first kisses under a sunset like that?” he asks.
My chest sears with anticipation. “What do they say?”
“That they’re pretty damn amazing.”
I wish I could stop my stupid grin, but there’s no way. “It’s not our first kiss.”
He takes my hand. “It is for this go-around.”
“I think we skipped past kisses last weekend.”
“We just did things a little out of order. We still get to have our second first kiss.”
“Lucky us.”
He looks down at my hand and takes it as the water washes over our calves. The longer he hesitates to kiss me, the more buildup rolls through my body like a big rig. He takes my other hand as well, still not looking into my eyes. I can’t tell if he’s nervous or trying to make me collapse with want.
Kylie:
Walking into my employee housing unit at Destiny Dunes resort for the first time, the last thing I expect to see is a hot guy…and definitely not a dripping wet naked one.
Turns out the unit was double-booked. With only twenty bucks to my name and no credit cards, I’m screwed.
But with Brett, Florida’s biggest playboy, offering me his bed for the weekend, I may not have to go crawling back to my two-timing ex or my controlling dad. My real challenge will be not letting this hunk who helps kids for a living steal my heart.
Brett:
Of all the housing units she could have walked into…
I don’t have the time or capacity to deal with this damsel in distress. Between helping my mom take care of my grandma and keeping an eye on my brother, all I’ve got time for are quick, emotionless hookups.
So why am I letting this woman pull me in?
I’ve been down that road before and it bit me in the ass. I’ve got to stay strong…make sure she understands my heart is off limits, otherwise, this thing between us is certain to detonate.
Bailey:
Not another wedding. At the last one, I was so sick of my many cousins asking why I was still single that I invented a fake boyfriend. Now I’ve got to make one materialize.
Luckily my buddy Cohen needs a date to his high school reunion to make his ex jealous. He scratches my back and I scratch his. I don’t mind scratching his, by the way. He’s the hottest guy at the resort where we both work.
Bad Bailey. I’m not going there. I spent the past few years pining after a guy I work with. I won’t humiliate myself like that, not again. But boy, is it tempting…
Cohen:
I’ve always thought Bailey was a fun, cute girl—the life of the party. My jaw drops when she walks out of the hotel room looking like a siren. I’m worried we’ll never make it downstairs to the reunion.
It makes zero sense to date a co-worker. But rules have been broken before, right?
I can’t let this thing with her get out of hand. I finally have the chance to start my own landscape design company with a colleague from school. But the opportunity is in Nashville, and Bailey’s here in Florida.
I’m still too burned from my last relationship to let anyone in. But Bailey’s knocking at my heart, hard. I’ve just got to keep her from slipping in.

When the meddlesome Peaches, Rob’s most sought-after potential client, tries to set him up on a blind date, he asks Gwendolen, the woman who cleans his house, to pose as his girlfriend. Gwendolen agrees to play along with Rob’s scheme in exchange for work for her start-up furniture recovering business. When Peaches invites them on a yacht trip for the weekend, Rob has his reservations. He supposes there are worse places to spend a working weekend. But if Gwendolen doesn’t stop prancing around in that bikini, he’s never going to be able to focus and get Peaches to sign on the dotted line.
Fuddy duddy Rob is not going to get in Gwendolen’s way of winning Peaches’ upholstery business. He may be irritated about having to spend the weekend on a yacht, but growing up poor, Gwendolen has never experienced anything like it. She’s winning Peaches over to boot. But if Gwendolen's not careful, Rob’s going to capture her heart. Gwendolen knows this weekend is a fantasy, and men like Rob don’t fall in love with their maids.
