"When workaholic Boston attorney Deirdra de MessieĢres is passed over for a well-deserved promotion, she takes a two-month hiatus to show her boss just how much he needs her and heads home to Silver Island. But beyond seeing her sisters happy, home is not where Deirdra's heart is. She has no interest in their family restaurant, the Bistro, or reliving hurtful childhood memories, and absolutely no interest in spending a single second with Josiah "Jagger" Jones, the Bistro's too-laid-back musician and chef. Sure, the hippie is hot, but he drives her nuts. The guy lives in a van with his dog, and he can't even commit to a solid work schedule. To make matters worse, he's always around. She needs to get off the island, stat. Jagger has overcome his own personal trials to place stock in life's pleasures: family, friends, peace...and if he has his way, one positively beautiful, absolutely uptight attorney. Jagger knows he's the perfect person to help Deirdra deal with her hurtful past and find her way back to being happy. A chance encounter leads to deep conversation, and night after liberating night, Deirdra lets down her guard. But neither has plans to stay on Silver Island. Free-spirited Jagger has wanderlust, and Deirdra has a career to return to. They're on different paths, and plans for a future together don't stand a chance. But when has anything gone according to plan?"-- Provided by publisher.
