Description

She’s not interested in Mr. Right, but she wouldn’t mind Mr. Right now…
Joanna has seen first-hand with her parents’ marriage how a relationship can go sour. She isn’t interested in a relationship, but she would like to know what all the fuss in the bedroom is about.
No romance, just sex. That’s not too much to ask, is it?
So when her friend Micah figures out what she’s planning and offers himself—she should say  “hell no.” He’s exactly what she isn’t looking for. He has “complicated” written on every delicious inch of him.
… but when he kisses her, “no” evaporates from her vocabulary. All she wants is more, more, more.
It only takes one night for Joanna to realize she’s miles out of her depth. If she’s not careful, she’s going to lose more than just her virginity to Micah. She’s going to lose her heart. And that’s something she promised she’d always keep safe.
He offers her one night, but one kiss tells him one night won’t be enough…
Micah is satisfied with his life. He’s got great friends. He loves his job as a park ranger.
But everything he thought he knew goes flying off the rails when he overhears Joanna’s plan to lose her virginity. He can’t let her climb into some stranger’s bed.
But once won’t be enough. Micah is already thinking about all the other firsts they could have.
Joanna is everything he wants in a woman. She’s clever and funny and she drives him wild. She makes him dream of a whole lot more than just a satisfactory life.
But when Micah’s investigation into a poaching ring on the national park puts both their lives in danger, he pushes her away. Once he realizes his mistake, will he be able to convince her to give him another chance?
Can he overcome her reservations and capture her guarded heart?
