Hadley Crawford was going to have it all-and finally show everyone she was more than they'd given her credit for. Then the boy she thought loved her walked away and her dreams of college evaporated. But that was years ago, and Hadley's been making the best of a bad situation-until Cooper Allen comes back to town. What do you do when the woman of your dreams unexpectedly comes back into your life? Pretend you don't remember her, obviously. Cooper let Hadley go for her own good and making her hate him is the only way to keep that plan in motion. He's not in a position to give her what she deserves and nothing's going to change that. But when Hadley and Cooper are forced to work together to make both of their dreams come true, the old sparks resurface. Can they trust each other enough to let the old hurts go? Or will the past be too strong to overcome?
