Served Cold

A little white lie has the power to bring a reformed bad boy to his knees.

Back in high school, Ann Weaver told herself getting ditched by Jack Bloom was for the best. At twenty-nine, she's way over him. He was her first, but definitely not her last. On weekly wine night with her friends, the talk turns to regrets-and Ann finds herself pledging to fix her past, starting with confronting those who treated her like dirt. Her first target: Jack, who's recently moved back to town to stay. But something's different. He's funny, kind, and amazing in bed. He acts like he really likes her, might even love her. Soon Ann is having a hard time remembering she's only in it for revenge. Especially when she learns the real reason he dumped her. Jack is older, wiser, and has a hell of a lot of experience behind him. For a chance at a future with this grown-up, gorgeous Ann, he's ready to do whatever it takes. Until her true motive for rekindling their romance comes to light, and Jack must decide if forgiveness is enough to let love push through the lie.

Warning: A woman who's out for revenge and encouraging friends rooting her on. May include sex in the outdoors, fun with salad, kissing in class, and a school teacher swearing like a sailor-not necessarily in that order.
