__________
Meet Christopher Vaughn. The reluctant CEO-in-waiting and heir-apparent to his family's bar and restaurant empire. Passionate about two things: his family's legacy and Andie.
After five years apart, Andie and Chris are unexpectedly thrown together in a messy mix of professional and personal circumstances as they work on the launch of a new bar establishment. Is this their chance to re-ignite their complicated friendship and heal the rupture from the last time they saw each other?
The heady cocktail of familiar warmth, heated conversation, and undeniable chemistry upends the neat rhythm of Andie's life and has her questioning what she really wants: friendship-or maybe even more, this time around.
Can Andie face her demons and move beyond her deep-seated fears to finally take the leap of faith and meet Chris halfway? Is it possible that the person who knows her best might be the love she's been missing?
