About the book

Growing up in Cape Larkspur, Bella St. John was one quarter of “the foursome”: Bella, her sister Remy, her best friend Ryker, and Remy’s best friend, Jake Shelley. Wherever one went, the others followed. Until the night Bella heard something on the stairs she has never been able to forget.

Eight years later, Bella has her own bakery, a quiet life, and one simple rule: stay away from Jake Shelley. Too bad he keeps finding reasons to walk through her door.

Some grudges are meant to last forever. This one might be meant for something else.

“Jake fucking Shelley. My sister’s best friend. My arch enemy.”
