Blurred Lines: A Second Chance Steamy Romance

It's the best of all worlds...until the lines blur.

Jackson

I never forgot her. But I wanted to.

Back then, I thought because we hit it off in every way—and I mean every way — we'd have a future.

After we imploded, I hoped to never see her again.

If only I'd stayed in Atlanta.

But the promotion called, and thanks to a mutual friend… Hello, neighbor.

My easy-to-talk-to and easy-on-the-eyes neighbor.

And then I went and got a half-cocked idea… or, one might call it a fully-cocked idea.

With the right parameters, we could have it all—friends with benefits.

No stress. No issues. No obligations. No expectations.

Low risk, right? There's no way I'd fall for her twice…

Anna

His unexpected proximity changes nothing.

But I forgot what a good friend he can be…and there's plenty I never forgot.

The years somehow made him more handsome, because, of course, they did. Doesn't matter if he's in a suit or a t-shirt–although, I prefer him in tees, and these days he lives in suits.

I should probably frame the reminder on my wall: college was a different era.

As a hot-shot lawyer, relationships aren't on his radar. And for once, we agree on something. Dating is a bad idea. There's no time. It's too stressful.

Now this other idea of his…there's no denying it's tempting. But it could be a really bad idea.

He's already my ex. What's the worst that can happen?
