It's the classic story-girl returns to her hometown only to end up moving in with her high school crush, who she hates.Returning to Willowbrook was my only option after Chicago chewed me up and spit me out. Technically, it wasn't Chicago's fault. It was his fault-the man I thought I knew who turned out to be a liar.My older sister, always the one to swoop in and fix things, secured me a job as a yoga instructor on her fiancé's family ranch. As my self-assigned protector, she's keeping one eye on me and one eye on Emmett Noughton, her fiancé's brother.He's the charming, fun-loving, take-life-as-it-comes kind of guy, and once upon a time, his name was scribbled in my notebooks. Back then, I was invisible to him. Now, he's looking at me like I'm the only thing in the room. But he lost his chance with me a long time ago. It's easy to keep him at arm's length and nurse the grudge I've held onto for years. Until the house I'm staying in sells, and I have nowhere to go except his house. Now, resisting him isn't just difficult-it's impossible.
