Uneasy Street — Becky Wade

Once upon a time Max Cirillo and Sloane Madison were close friends and business partners. But when their business relationship imploded, so did the friendship.

Now, four years later, Max is a rich CEO. Sloane's a not-so-rich etiquette expert who returns to Maine to serve as her niece's temporary guardian and help the girl search for her birth father. Sloane and her niece move into a darling garage apartment but Sloane's joy in their accommodations soon turns to horror when she realizes their apartment belongs to Max. Thanks to an unbreakable lease, she's stuck living right next door to him.

Max pulled strings to bring Sloane into his orbit because he needs closure on what went wrong between them. Quickly, though, his scheming comes back to bite him. The world might view him as a cold-hearted rake, but this one woman has dangerous power over his emotions.

They'll have no choice but to confront their history -- and the undeniable spark between them -- while living side by side on uneasy street.
