Spicy fiction made novelist Claire Gissler a star, but she can't pen a sentence to save her life since her husband's accidental death two years ago. Now, deeply in debt, her only hope of reviving her crumbling career is to flee small town America for big city London. Trouble is, she can't afford the move. That is, not until handsome Adam Lambright—her husband's best friend and the man she blames for his death—offers to let her stay in his flat...with him.

Adam Lambright used to know how to smile, how to have fun, how to love, but that was before watching his best friend die and his wife wither away from cancer. Now, ticked off at God, he's vowed never to love again. That doesn't mean he can't help out his best friend's widow. Besides, her life's more of a mess than his own.

Seeing no other possible option, Claire moves to London. In that exciting city, she faces the challenges of rebuilding her career—and the attentions of her sexy English publicist. But, it's her growing feelings for Adam that present the biggest challenge: learn to forgive or face heartbreak once again.
