Ava Haliburton has returned home for her brother, Damien's, wedding. She's spent the last ten years in college and graduate school in the United States. She has just been dumped by one of her professor's who saw career advancement as more important than her relationship.
Caleb Gilchrist, Damien Haliburton's best man and business partner, has spent the last decade living the good life and not thinking about how when Ava ran off all those years ago, she left him behind after he begged her stay. Now that she's back, he's can't decide whether to stay away from her or be with her one last time in the hope that it will purge her from his mind.
This story is about how Ava and Caleb deal with each other during the three days following the wedding. It is a smart, funny story that is romantic, emotional, and charged with great sexual tension, without slipping over the line into unbelievable and maudlin. One of the best Harlequin's I've read in a long time. I'm going to go looking for other books by Ally Blake to see if they live up to this one.
