When does a fling become a thing?
I was aware of Jake Cavendish in high school, but he was two years older and destined for great things. So, it's not a surprise when I spot him at a black-tie event in Toronto and he doesn't recognize me. It is a surprise that there's sizzling attraction between us, one we both want to explore. That's an opportunity I'm not going to miss. It would be easy to want more of something so good, but I tell myself that simple is better, since his family and mine are like the Hatfields and McCoys here in our tiny hometown of Empire. One night will have to do.
Then Jake arrives in Empire to settle his father's estate. This time, it burns that he doesn't recognize me, but I soon learn that Jake is very good at keeping his secrets. A second night together is irresistible at this point, even a third, and it's thrilling that we're meeting secretly. There's no future for us together - I'm married to my job, running the family vineyard, and he's on a climb to the corner office at a big firm in Toronto. I know that we're both making the most of the moment.
The problem is that it's been more than physical from the start. Jake surprises me and he interests me. He's smart and perceptive, and he makes me laugh. The more often we're together - the more times I sleep with the enemy, as my grandfather would say - the harder it is to ignore that I'm falling head over heels. Am I the only one wanting more? Am I the one who will have to make the sacrifices to give us a shared future? Or is it possible that Jake is the guy I've been hoping for all along?

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. I barely knew Jake Cavendish in high school. He was two years ahead of me-the golden boy everyone knew was destined to leave our small town of Empire behind. And he did.So when we cross paths years later at a glamorous black-tie gala in Toronto, I'm not surprised he doesn't recognize me. What does catch me off guard is the undeniable spark between us. One unforgettable night feels like the perfect escape. After all, our families have been feuding for generations, and there's no future for us. Better to leave it as one perfect memory than risk getting hurt.Then Jake returns to Empire to settle his father's estate.Suddenly, staying away from each other is impossible. Every stolen moment makes the attraction harder to resist, and our secret affair only raises the stakes. I'm committed to preserving my family's vineyard, while Jake is chasing a partnership at one of Toronto's top firms. Our lives are pulling us in opposite directions, and neither of us is looking for forever.But somewhere between the laughter, the late-night conversations, and the stolen kisses, this stopped being just a fling. Falling for the enemy was never part of the plan. Yet the more I get to know Jake, the more I wonder if everything I believed about our families-and about him-has been wrong.
