Moving back to my home town is humiliating.

It’s only temporary. I’m not giving up everything I’ve worked for just because my ex set me up. 

I can’t bear to stay in Manhattan with everyone I know believing I made a huge, career-ending mistake. What I have to do is take a step away until my name can be cleared. That’s all. Everything’s going to go back to normal in no time and nothing will change.

My only option for distancing myself is to head back to my hometown and make sure I don’t run into anyone from high school. My friends left the same time I did. There’s no one else I want to see, because then I’d have to admit I might not have become the great success I set out to be.

I never thought I’d stumble across the kind of temptation I didn’t know existed. Meeting three guys who stayed in town and made their lives exactly what they wanted wasn’t on my radar. I’ve never been so intensely attracted to any one man before, let alone three. My dull nights heat up to a scorching level and I can’t resist Sy or Bolt or Kevin.

When what we have starts to unravel, I’d do anything to stop my life from blowing up theirs. The ex jocks have a secret of their own to keep and I can’t let it come out. Just like I can’t let myself fall for all three of them. That could never work.
