Growing up, Jacob Emerson was my brother’s best friend—the boy who teased me, protected me, and starred in way too many of my teenage daydreams. He moved away, became a bestselling author, and left me with a crush I never quite outgrew.
Now he’s back in town, researching his next novel, and my brother thinks it’s a great idea for me to be his research assistant. It’s supposed to be professional. Strictly business. But one look at Jacob, and all those old feelings come rushing back—stronger and far more dangerous than before.
He’s older, wiser, and still completely off-limits.
But when autumn nights turn long and his smiles turn soft, resisting him might just be impossible.
