Asher never expected a second chance at love, not after he tragically lost his first.
With a broken heart and shattered life, this doctor carefully put the pieces of his world back together, only for his walls to crumble when he walks into a patient’s recovery room and meets Layla, the woman from out of town who put her life on hold to care for her aunt… The woman who challenges everything Asher thought he knew.
Layla’s love, dedication, and passion give Asher a hope he thought couldn’t exist.
Everything about Layla draws Asher in… But he can’t escape the guilt of falling in love again, of moving forward, even though his heart beats for Layla.
Their romance can only go so far before Asher’s past causes him to question their future, as Layla returns home and forces herself to move on.
It feels impossible for Layla to fathom life with anyone else, and Asher is determined to prove just how far he’ll go for love.
When given their second chance, Asher and Layla will find out if love can truly forgive and overcome.

Allison
It’s been a long semester. My roommate moved out. My boyfriend cheated on me. And the courses I took drained me.
All I want to do is go home for the holidays.
But the forces of nature have a different plan.
I’m stuck, snowed in, with no heat or food for the unforeseeable future … on Christmas Eve no less. Could it get any worse?
It could.
In an attempt to venture out and find food before the storm worsens, I collide with the one person I’d gone to great lengths to avoid all semester – Assistant Professor Dempsey, the man I almost had a one-night stand with months ago.
Keeping my distance from him is impossible as he tempts me with a warm meal and his presence.
The temptation to finish what we started the night we met may be too hard to resist.

I thought I would never see Allison Brown again, but fate had other plans.
Our chance collision meant I could no longer ignore her presence. Knowing she had no food or heat, I had no choice but to invite her to dinner.
But inviting her means risking what I’ve done to bury my violent and chaotic past. This assistant professor position was a favor – a gift given and not meant to squander. Giving in to my desire could risk all of it. But the chance to have another taste of Allison – I can’t promise I won’t give in.
