Avery Shaw’s bad day gets worse when her car dies on the side of a back road, miles from anywhere, in the pouring rain. When she stumbles across a local repair shop, she’s expecting greasy overalls and a gruff attitude. Instead, she gets Cole Maddox — a mechanic with forearms built for trouble, a crooked smile, and a way of looking at her that sends her pulse racing.
One quick fix turns into an offer she can’t resist.
One look. One spark. One night.
No labels. No promises. No strings.
