Adele Mozley was used to the friend zone. Men liked hanging with her but when it came time to get romantic, she usually got the polite stiff-arm.

But so what, right? She had a job she liked, a loyal BFF, an amazing son and slightly-curmudgeonly father, and Friday nights with Jamaican takeout and her remote. That's not so bad.

Enter Kingston Ferrell, who is persistent, younger...and so hot it's almost intimidating. And he has eyes only for her. Adele didn't lack self-esteem, but she couldn't quite let herself believe that this hunk would be interested in a 40-something widow with a teenage son. So will she get out of her own way and let him love her? Or will she go back to spending her nights alone with forbidden dairy and regrets?
