After his parents' death, Nicholas Fairworth returns to Briarwood Ridge with a heavy heart. His parents' estate has left him with a long string of problems he finds himself poorly equipped to solve, so seeing his high school crush again after fourteen years is the last thing on his mind.
And yet, there he is, in flesh and blood, all-knowing smile, attitude, and sexiness incarnate. However, Anthony Lamb is much more than he was during his days as the small city and high school black sheep. He's a successful businessman, he has his life in order, and he's the opposite of his unruly rebellious image from those halcyon days Nicholas still remembers fondly.
Until he opens his mouth, and Nicholas realizes that his nemesis has never forgotten what happened the last time they saw each other fourteen years ago. And that he will be called Golden Tongue again, whether he likes it or not.
