She's not expecting love. He's not planning to stay.

Willa Dash's sheltered life is perfectly wonderful, thank you very much. She loves cooking at her family's diner and enjoying everything her tiny beach side town has to offer—despite her mother insisting her talents would be better showcased at a Michelin-starred restaurant far away from home.

Big city cop Reid MacKinnon decamps to Lucky after his undercover sting goes bust. His plan is simple: help his police chief uncle by patrolling the town, and lay low while the D.A. builds a case against the bad guys back home.

All his plans go up in flames when he comes face to face with adorably klutzy Willa, who stammers and tries to hide from him every time they meet. Considering he's her new neighbor, that's…a lot. It's not long before making her blush is his new favorite pastime, and this small town? It's beginning to feel a lot like home. Now he needs to convince Willa to give their relationship a real chance—and not be taken out by the hitman sent to finish him.
