From The Publisher:
After losing my first wife, I vowed to never love again, and for ten years, I've kept that promise.
I bed women, maybe take them out for a few drinks, but once that twinkle in their eye gets a little too bright, I cut ties. It's the only way I know to keep my heart safe.
But then she walks in…
Lily is no longer the little girl I used to know but a woman all grown up with curves and a smile that reminds me of everything I've spent the last ten years trying to forget.
The attraction is instant, but it's wrong on so many levels. She's here to study, and I'm the newly appointed Dean.
I can't fall for her and will do anything to make sure she doesn't fall for me, even if that means making her hate me. But even if I don't want to admit it, I feel she can be the one to make me love again.
That is if I can let go of the hold her dead sister's memory has on my heart first. **This is book 4 in the North Woods University series and is a complete standalone with a happily ever after. It contains dark-triggering material suitable for adults only.**
