Loves hole-in-the-wall restaurants, local markets, and greasy cheeseburgers? Where has she been all his life?
Galen’s entire life has been controlled by her overbearing father, who’s tried to mold her into a carbon copy of himself. When she arrives in Daytona Beach, Florida, the only thing on her mind is representing the company in a way that will finally make him proud, sealing the deal on an epic subcontract, and finally bringing in some new revenue to save their ailing company.
She wasn’t expecting to be dealing with a green-eyed, powerhouse of a man whose effortless charm totally disarms her. Free from her father’s control, she begins to see how life could be with someone who accepts her just as she is, without demanding anything more.
But just as Galen starts to dream about her future, her father arrives to spill all the secrets of her past that she hadn’t had the strength to tell Jax. Worse, she’s been lied to about the whole deal…and Jax was part of the deceit. Will the truth rip Galen and Jax apart? Or can they battle through and find a way to a happy ever after?
