She's chosen him...to awaken her!

Demure Ivy Kennedy is determined to lose her virginity by her thirtieth birthday. And there's only one man she trusts with the role — Louis Charpentier, king of no commitment.

Louis has long denied his attraction to the red-haired beauty. Ivy deserves nothing less than the happily-ever-after she's always dreamed of and is ultimately looking for long-term romance. Louis avoids relationships, thanks to his parents' marital misery. But her request has started a fire...how will one night of unleashed passion ever be enough?
