About this ebook
After their no-strings fling in paradise, Lyric and Devon never thought they’d see each other again. Until they did. Now they have very different ideas about what the future holds…
Sometimes you just have to take the leap…
What happens in Aruba, stays in Aruba… That’s what former ballerina Lyric Taylor keeps telling herself, at least. After all, now that the curtain has closed on her ballet career, and with the search for her biological parents stalling, she could use a little distraction. So when a lodging mix-up leads to an unexpected fling in paradise with her sexy bunkmate, Devon, Lyric takes the plunge. Seven days of sun, sand and plenty of sizzle—and when it’s time to go home, their no-strings sitch will come to an end… Right?
Single dad Devon Masters spent the last eight years shielding his daughter, Kianna, from life’s disappointments—and he’s gotten pretty good at cutting pain off at the pass. But nothing can prepare him for this latest bombshell: discovering Lyric Taylor is Kianna’s new dance teacher. What happened in Aruba seems to have followed them home, but they’ll have to keep it under wraps for as long as they can. Soon, however, new feelings take hold and old wounds resurface. Will they finally find the rhythm they need to redefine what belonging truly means?

A chance encounter in Aruba leads to a steamy fling between dance instructor Lyric and single dad Devon. But their secret tryst becomes complicated when their paths unexpectedly intertwine back home. As their feelings grow, can they navigate past hurts to find a future together? I enjoyed the dynamic between Lyric and Devon. Their relationship is hot and sweet. I love Devon’s little girl and how she helps bring the couple together. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received.
