LOLA I gave him up for my whale research. But without funding, it seems my research is ready to give up on me. When the man I left behind ten years ago reappears to offer his help, I have no choice but to accept. Despite our painful past, we must work together to raise the funds I need - without old feelings getting in the way. Except the longer we're alone, the more the guilt and attraction seem to resurface. But we can't be together. Not with my past. Not with his lies. OSCAR Fame isn't what it's cracked up to be. So many superficial people. Unlike them, I actually want to do something good in the world. Even after all these years, the only cause I seem to care about is protecting whales. Lola's whales. Surprised to find her working at the local nonprofit, I refuse to let her go. Not again. I will do whatever it takes to save the woman I love, if only she will let me. She may have her coworker's arm on her shoulder, and I may have the devil in my bed, but surely somehow we can fix this. I'd do anything for Lola. Anything but tell the truth.
