How long can a person resist temptation? Especially when it's living under the same roof. Theo Wilde had nowhere to go. A junior in college with no money to his name, he had no choice but to take his best friend, Ryder Calaway, up on his offer: to stay with him and his mom in Ryder's childhood home. The idyllic suburban neighborhood was the last place Theo expected to end up. And the last place he wanted to be. Until her. Natalie Calaway didn't hesitate when her son asked if his best friend could stay with them for an indefinite period of time. All she knew was his name-Theo-and that he had nowhere else to go. Still, she wouldn't say no. Until she laid eyes on the man who invaded her house and realized she probably should have. Two seconds in, and she already regretted her decision. Especially when Ryder receives the internship offer of a lifetime across the country. Leaving Theo and Natalie living alone. And alone is a scary place to be. Alone together, it's harder-nearly impossible-to resist the intense, ever-growing attraction between them. Even if it's bound to end horribly. Even if it's messy and forbidden and wrong.
