Accidentally on Purpose

Elle Wheaton runs the Pacific Pier Building in San Francisco with polish and control, and keeps her past firmly behind her. What she cannot manage is Archer Hunt, the security expert who gave up his law-enforcement career years ago to protect her, and who has kept his distance ever since because he is convinced she deserves better.

That resolve holds right up until Elle starts dating other men. Archer sets about sabotaging every date, and the tension the two of them have been suppressing for years finally breaks.

Accidentally on Purpose is the third Heartbreaker Bay novel from Jill Shalvis — banter-driven contemporary romance with a protective hero, a heroine who refuses to be handled, and the found family of the Pacific Pier Building around them.
