They vowed to steer clear of Manhattan’s heartbreakers – but when it comes to love, some risks are worth taking…
There’s never a bad time to fall in love in the city, right? Wrong. According to the recently-widowed Claire Hayes, it’s very, very wrong. After finding out her late husband was a liar and a cheat, Claire’s focus is solely on redesigning her Upper East Side brownstone, ridding it of anything that reminds her of her philandering husband. But when she meets gruff and often-cantankerous contractor Scott Turner and realizes not all men are scumbags, Claire must decide if she’s ready to risk her heart again.
Scott needs a change of pace from the corporate offices and swanky hotels he’s been building, and bluntly makes it clear to Claire that’s the only reason he took on her house. But when long work days turn into even longer nights, their mutual wariness morphs into something more complicated – a grudging respect, and maybe even attraction…? Scott knows he’s not one to settle down, but then why can’t he bring himself to move on to the next job?
