Blurb
Zara Valentine’s life is in crisis–recently divorced, living in her sister’s spare room, and barely holding it together. The last person she expects to run into? Hendrix Creed–the tattooed, emotionally unavailable musician she used to tutor in college. The same one who made her feel too much with too little to show for it.
Now he’s stepping in as a temporary bassist for Manic at Midnight, one of the biggest bands in the country–and suddenly, Hendrix is back in her orbit.
When the band needs a touring doctor, Hendrix is the one who calls her.
One road trip. One keep it casual.
But between hotel room proximity, unresolved history, and late-night confessions, their no-strings setup starts to look dangerously like something real.
And when Zara begins to notice symptoms that could threaten Hendrix’s health and future onstage, she’s faced with an impossible choice–protect his secret, or risk losing the one person she never stopped wanting.
