“No one writes sexy and smart like Romanoff. This is a romance for grown-ups, one that offers redemption and tenderness for all those who are lost.” —Maurene Goo, author of One and Only and Throwback

“I devoured it in one delicious gulp. Hot, tender, and compulsively readable—this is the very best kind of escapism.” —Laura Wood, author of Under Your Spell

“Irresistible characters and an intoxicating romance. The only thing it left me wanting was more, more, more.” —Jennifer Niven, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Sobriety and desire are sometimes a dangerous combination—but it can also be exhilarating. This is that story.” —A.J. Daulerio, founder of The Small Bow and former editor of Gawker and Deadspin

This is Maggie’s first real vacation in years. She’s checking into a tucked-away Vermont enclave, and for once, she isn’t compulsively responding to work emails or taking on a last-minute floral job. All she wants is time to herself.

But what she gets is a run-in with Jake Ramsey, a onetime hard-partying pop star in recovery who's spiraling about his own life in the aftermath of his best friend Charlie’s wedding. Are Maggie and Jake providing each other with much-needed distraction from their real lives—or are they showing each other a way out of the woods?
