From debut author Ellie Blackbourne comes a festive romance novel of hope, grief and love following a young photographer as she navigates a life-changing changing competition and reuniting with the one man who could wreck it all.
Used to hurtful exits, Devin Mitchell has closed herself off to love. Instead, she has thrown herself into her photography and dreams not of wedding dresses but going back to college.
When she's picked to compete in a competition that can launch her career, she is confident she can beat her competitors--aside from one: Luke Shaw, former best friend, current rival, all-time pain in her ass.
She won't forgive him. She can't. But when they collide--literally--and Devin is thrust back into Luke's orbit, she knows she is trouble. Because caring and easy-going Luke is a distraction that Devin can't afford. With her eyes on the prize, she must avoid falling for him, or watch her dreams of going to college and escaping her small town fade away.
So why is it she can't stay away?
