A woman who has sworn off men finds that fate—and her heart—have plans of their own in this dazzling romance from the New York Times–bestselling author.

Divorced from her childhood sweetheart, Amber MacLaine is making a go of it as a single mom. But when her son flies to the West Coast to spend the summer with his father, Amber is at loose ends, even with a new job in the PR department at Massachusetts General Hospital.

That is, until she meets a devastatingly handsome doctor—and keeps running into him. First, she encounters him on the baseball field of her son's game, coaching for the opposing team. Then, Amber crosses paths with him at the airport, while they're both dropping off their kids to visit their exes. Is that him she sees riding his bike while she's riding hers? Of course. And when Zachary Wilder finally takes her into his arms, her defenses drop. Amber finds herself fighting a desire that takes her breath away. And the only cure for that kind of passion is . . . surrender.
