For glass artist Ashton Weller, Longboat Key seems like the perfect place to start over. It's warm, sunny, and far from the dangerous ex he left behind in Chicago, even if his glass studio does get even more uncomfortable in the Florida heat. It's also home to Terrance Manetti, a man who turns into Ashton's inadvertent hero when he saves him from some unsavory types at a local restaurant… and may turn into more than that. Former mobster Terrance has been in Witness Protection with his "brothers" ever since they turned state's evidence against their former employer. His brothers have a different life here, filled with family and small-time, honest jobs, and Terrance doesn't know whether to be jealous or derisive. Not until he meets Ashton, anyway. With Ashton, Terrance could build the kind of life he's never dared to want—the kind of life where he won't need the skills he learned in organized crime. Or so he thinks—until Ashton's past comes looking for him….

Dixie doesn’t expect a message from an old flame asking for a place to stay, but he agrees. Their past is just that—the past.

The two men are drawn closer and old flames burst back to life, but Dixie’s work brings a new threat to their safety and the budding family they missed out on the first time around.

When Dex Grippon's mother dies, he takes it as a sign—it's time to give up acting and return to his hometown. If he can find a way to save his mother's bookstore, he can preserve the one link he still has to his parents. But keeping an independent bookstore afloat turns out to be more difficult than he anticipated, and Dex isn't the only one who wonders what else his mom might have been selling. Former cop Les Gable might be off the job, but he has to know what was going on at the bookstore, and he'll do anything to satisfy his curiosity—including befriend the new owner with an offer to help sort out his new business. Something about the bookstore doesn't smell right, and Les is going to find out what. The problem is that his curiosity about Dex soon far outstrips his interest in what happened at the store. But as curiosity matures into love, the store's past threatens their future. Can Les and Dex untangle the mystery of the bookshop and escape with their relationship—and their lives—intact, or will the whole thing go up in smoke?
