NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan continues the Montgomery Ink Legacy series with an emotional, friends-to-lovers romance where second chances begin with a promise.

I fell in love with the wrong man and learned the hard way to ask for help.

I don't plan on falling again and have no intention of trying.

But when I get invited to a high-powered CEO retreat, I know I can't say no.

And I can't go alone.

When my frenemy, Nick, invites himself as my escort, I should walk away.

But there's no stopping the connection we've both ignored for far too long.

Only Nick's past is far darker than he lets the world know, and the shell he encased himself in is stronger than my own. And when the pain from my past comes back with a force, I'm afraid that walking away will be the only choice-even if it breaks us both.
