About to become homeless, Evie accepts a room with her aging neighbor. Jake moves in to protect his grandmother's interests. When Jake invites Evie to come with him to a business dinner, she agrees. One date leads to another, and they grow closer. But when Jake's business deal unravels and he starts keeping secrets, can their relationship survive?

This novella is engaging and fast-paced. Despite some rivalry and awkward moments when they first meet, Evie and Jake fall for each other pretty quickly. Evie's had some bad experiences with men, and she's skittish. Fortunately, Jake doesn't give up on her.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
