Wild child bartender Wyatt Hart has a full plate. Her younger sister came home from college pregnant, and her mother just showed up fresh from prison.

So when a rare free evening at a roadside bar turns into a chance encounter with Owen McBride, local pediatrician and town golden boy, Wyatt knows better than to flirt with him. Or kiss him. Or follow the surprisingly filthy-mouthed good boy out to his truck. Wyatt doesn't do relationships, after all, and Owen is the floor model of a boyfriend guy.

But when that one night quickly turns into flirty banter and fiery stolen moments, Owen promises Wyatt that he doesn't need a relationship. He just needs her.

Everyone in town can tell that the bartender and the pediatrician are more than a fling, but that doesn't stop Wyatt and Owen from lying to themselves ... and each other. But Wyatt's fear of relationships is about to catch up with her, and the town golden boy is harboring a secret that might undo him.
