My life should be fantastic—but my dream job comes with a nightmare boss, my awesome apartment has a creepy landlord, and my friends are all too busy for us to do much of anything.
So when my car breaks down on a lonely back road just as a freak snowstorm hits the Philly area, it's the icing on the cake. And who should show up but my college grump of an ex-boyfriend: Jacob Matthews, star tight-end for the Wilmington Beavers.
For all his faults, I still trust Jacob to get me somewhere safe before the storm blows through. I wasn't expecting to have to stay at his house until the roads were clear, with only each other for company… and warmth.
I know how this story ends, though—Jacob's always put football first, and I chose my career over following him all over the country. Except, all the years apart have changed us both.
And I'm starting to think that maybe we're better together, against the odds.
