Worth the Wait

He was my first everything—first love, first heartbreak, first boy who promised forever.
I’ve spent the last eight years becoming exactly who I wanted to be.
Confident, successful, and unapologetically ambitious.

As a rising star at Blake Financial, I’ve worked my ass off to build a life the girl I used to be could only dream of.
Then Jackson Hayes walks back into my life.

Gone is the boy who kissed me in a field of daisies and promised to follow me to college.
In his place?
A sharp-suited negotiator with a Harvard law degree, the firm's newest star hire…and my direct competition for the junior counsel position I’ve been gunning for.

Now we’re stuck working late nights together, sparring over strategy, avoiding the landmines of our past, and pretending the tension simmering between us isn’t about to explode.

I left Jackson behind once to chase the future we planned.
But the man sitting across the conference table?
He’s a complication I didn’t plan for and a temptation I might not survive.

Because the one thing more dangerous than falling for Jackson Hayes again…is finding out I never stopped.

Perfect for fans of workplace romance who love their boardroom drama with a healthy side of steam, and their sweet small-town boys corrupted by big-city girls.
