Elijah Wells is trouble. He always has been. The kind of trouble that makes your heart race and your common sense disappear. Just ask all the girls in town throwing themselves at him. He broke my heart once-walked away like what we had meant nothing-and I swore I'd never let him get close enough to do it again.

I should've let him go a long time ago. He's everything my family would hate-wild, reckless, and, worst of all, a Woods. The feud between our families has been going on for decades, and no good could ever come from crossing that line.

But now, thanks to his brother's honeymoon, I'm stuck sharing a house with Eli for two weeks, chasing after three energetic boys and trying to pretend that old spark between us isn't still burning. Two weeks of late nights, quiet conversations, and discovering a side of him I never expected.

He's kind. Protective. He's making it impossible to forget why I fell for him in the first place, or why I swore I'd never let him break my heart again.

But the way Eli looks at me makes me question everything. If we give in, we could lose everything. And yet, walking away from him this time might just break me for good. I'm just not sure I can be The One Who Risked it All.
