When a sultry Nashville one-night stand turns into country hits and stolen kisses... Shane Hart loves the ladies. Like hit records, he can never have too many. His traumatic past has kept him from making any solid commitments—until fiery redhead like Avery O’Leery. Shane’s happy to rescue her from a tight spot, and after a night together, is rethinking his impulse to love ’em and leave ’em. Avery has big plans: first, shake the dust of small-town Kentucky from her boots; second, become a bona fide songwriter; and third, keep the truth hidden about her birth father from everyone in Nashville. Nowhere on that list is she supposed to land in bed with a sexy stranger who rescues her off the street at midnight, especially if that stranger is Shane Hart. Avery’s trying not to fall for the dreamy music producer who could make or break her career. But her best-laid plans seem to be no match for a love that feels like destiny.
