Twelve years ago, James Hard made a mistake. He never asked Eliza to go to the prom with him, losing his chance with the curvy blonde. She left town for college and the big city. Now she's back, and he's not about to let her slip through his fingers again. She will belong to him. However, when he knocks her over with his bike, he doesn't know if he stands a chance.

Eliza remembers the Hard Boys' reputation and she's not interested in being another conquest, at least, she doesn't intend to be. They're older now, wiser, and being in James's bed is better than anything she could ever imagine.
He's not like his brothers. James wants more—forever, but he doesn't know how to get it without chasing her away.
