Archer Steele is one of the leading vintners on the East Coast: arrogant, driven, and firmly uninterested in settling down. That is exactly what makes his no-strings hookups with Indi Oliver so perfect. A talented hair and makeup artist and his sister's beautiful best friend, Indi is building a cosmetics line and preparing to open a boutique on Silver Island, and a real relationship simply is not part of her plan. When she calls off their casual trysts to pour everything into her new business, ending things should be easy for a man who never wanted more anyway. Instead, Archer discovers he is nowhere near ready to let her go. As their undeniable chemistry and a surprising, deeper connection keep pulling them back together, both have to reckon with the fact that what began as pure escape has started to feel like something that could last. He is set on pleasure and she is all business, and neither planned to fall. Set on the sandy shores of Silver Island among the sharp-witted Steeles, this is a flirty, steamy friends-with-benefits romance about ambition, chemistry, and the risk of wanting more than you bargained for.
