Can Dena and Gabe overcome their past for a second chance at love?
The boy named Most Likely to Succeed back in high school? That would be handsome, wealthy Gabe Moreau. Everyone assumed Gabe's devotion to girlfriend Dena Devlin was mere puppy love, a rebellious stroll on the wrong side of the tracks. Dena was, after all, the janitor's daughter. Unfortunately, even a love as strong as theirs couldn't withstand Gabe's act of betrayal.
At their 15th high school reunion, Dena comes face-to-face with the cheating boyfriend who broke her fragile young heart. The good news is, Dena is now a self-made millionaire, thanks to the pet-resort empire she built, inspired by her love of dogs—a true Cinderella story! The bad news is, Gabe is sexier than ever. Well, no worries. She's no longer the shy, self-conscious girl she was back then. She can handle one awkward evening.
What she doesn't count on is a full week at a Long Island B&B with Gabe and a quirky cast of characters from the old days. One of their housemates is the girl Gabe cheated with all those years ago, the "appropriate" girl his parents always intended for him to settle down with. Well, so what? Dena is over him. Really. All she wants is to get through the week and never lay eyes on the infuriating man again.
If only there weren't all those unanswered questions, all the doubts and longing she's repressed for so long. If only she could ignore the magnetic attraction that still hummed between them. Forgiveness and do-overs were far from her mind when she signed up for her high school reunion. How is she supposed to get through a whole week under the same roof with Gabe?
