Max Devlin never thought Jade would want him outside of his dreams, but fate plays a helping hand when they're thrust into a high stakes mission, protecting each other's backs like old times. Max decides he's finally ready to end his bachelor ways, but he learns quickly that happily-ever-after isn't always possible. Because Jade has no desire to ever love again. Not when she knows how painful it can be.
