Synopsis

Anna-Marie likes her relationships uncomplicated and her exits easy. It has worked well enough on the soap-opera set and in Los Angeles generally, right up until Josh Rios — an agent with a reputation and a great deal of patience — starts to matter more than she is willing to admit.

So she does what she always does when things get serious: she leaves. A family reunion back in small-town Wyoming is the perfect excuse. Josh, to her considerable inconvenience, comes with her.

The second book in Megan Walker and Janci Patterson's Extra series is a contemporary romantic comedy about fear of commitment, meeting the family, and deciding whether a good thing is worth the risk of keeping.
