Bush pilot Bridget Shanahan runs from responsibility like a child runs from a dentist appointment, but when her brother leaves the family's airfield in her hands, she knows it's time to step up and behave like a Responsible Adult™. So of course that's when Archer Ellison III blows into her tiny town of Captivity, Alaska, every inch the hot-as-hell mistake that most definitely belongs in her past. Been there, done that, and didn't even get to keep the commemorative sweatshirt.



Archer has only ever had two goals. Now that he's built his own empire outside his father's company, he can move on to goal #2—winning back the one who got away by whatever means necessary. He knows it won't be easy. Bridget Shanahan is older, wiser, more self-assured, and jaw-droppingly stunning . . . and doing everything she can to pretend the scorching chemistry between them doesn't exist.



But fate is on his side. After an impulsive bet that would have sent Archer packing goes awry, Bridget is officially stuck with him. Which is really inconvenient, since falling for Archer again is the least responsible thing she could do.
