He's looking for the perfect wife. She's just looking for the perfect one-night stand. As literary agent to a romance novelist, Zoey Moody's life currently revolves around love - which is ironic, as she is practically allergic to the L word. She's also a city girl through and through, and yet here she is in tiny Story Lake, Pennsylvania, trying to wrangle author Hazel's next big hit. Life isn't exactly going to plan. It takes all of five minutes in town before chaos finds her, sending her directly into the path of Gage Bishop, one of the stupidly handsome Bishop brothers. He is exactly the kind of romance hero that could entice a heroine to succumb to the charm of small-town life - but Zoey is no romance lead, and Gage can't seem to stand her. It's clear they're all wrong for each other. She's allergic to commitment and can't work a calendar app; he's looking to settle down and has the next five years all planned out. But when Gage's world is rocked by a devastating family secret, he turns to Zoey for one night to forget everything. That one night might just change everything . . . or ruin it. Zoey suddenly finds herself wanting to be the one to save him - and maybe even be saved in return. Can Story Lake inspire a woman who is terrified of love to finally write her own happy ending?

New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy returns with her signature heat and humour for a Briar universe standalone romance – where one unforgettable summer changes everything. Join us at the Logan family lake house in Tahoe…  After a brutal breakup, college junior Blake Logan escapes to her family’s lake house in Tahoe, determined to shut out the world. Her plan is simple: no men, no drama. Until Wyatt Graham shows up. Four years older and far too good at getting under her skin, Wyatt is the living embodiment of a “bad idea,” and the guy who shattered her pride when she confessed her crush at sixteen. With his music career stalled, Wyatt has come to Tahoe for inspiration. The last thing he expects is to find it with Blake. He’s spent years keeping his distance, convinced he’s all wrong for her, but she’s no longer the innocent girl he once knew. She’s confident, captivating, and impossible to ignore. And the slow-burning tension between them? It’s catching fire fast. They both know this can’t last, but one reckless kiss turns into another, and soon they’re tangled in something that feels dangerously like more. Just as they finally give in to the pull, tragedy tears them apart, leaving their hearts in pieces. But forgetting that one, nearly perfect summer? Not a chance. And when fate brings them together again, Blake and Wyatt must decide if this is a second chance…or the final verse.

But with a young son to raise and a past that won’t stay buried, Brae is back…and determined to uncover the truth. She just didn’t count on the brooding, reclusive mountain man living next door. Dex Archer is the stuff of local legend—silent, rugged, and surrounded by whispers of his and his brothers’ violent father. But Brae sees through the scowl and his parentage to the man beneath: fiercely loyal, unexpectedly kind…and just dangerous enough to protect her when someone starts warning her off her search. The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it is to stay away from Dex. And as things get more perilous, Brae realizes the only person she can rely on is the one man who swore never to trust again. Only someone isn’t happy that Brae has been digging, and they’ll do anything to stop her. But Dex? He’ll do anything to save her, even slip back into the dark.
