Heated Winter

Nothing beats a sexy Jamaican vacation!

Alaine Winters returns to her homeland to tend to her injured mother, but she's not against a little island loving, should the opportunity arise! Just not with her former crush, Craig Holt!

Alaine wasn't looking to be bogged down with a commitment, and the Craig Holt she remembered was the forever-type. But in the three years since their one-night, Craig has changed. Yes, their chemistry is still off the charts, but Craig is suddenly relationship-shy. Which suits Alaine just fine!

They fall headlong into a steamy, tropical affair, careful not to let their mothers, who happen to be best friends, find out. In keeping with the no-string-attached, friends-with-benefits theme, Alaine keeps her dating options open with another hunky male, Omar. But as the affair with Craig progresses, she tries to ignore the feelings of disappointment that Craig appears to be completely unbothered by the knowledge of Omar.

As if things weren't chaotic enough, Craig's world is thrown off axis by the reemergence of his ex-fianc©e! Their tragic parting is still an open wound for Craig, and his feelings are all over the place. Does he want to pick up where things left off with Dawn? Is there a future with Alaine?

This twelve-week journey follows Alaine and Craig as they battle their present feelings and past demons.
