She's the girl next door. He's always just out of reach. When violent weather sparks an unexpected attraction, has love's lightning finally struck?

Marlowe Glass happily accepts the responsibility of bringing up her orphaned niece. But the struggling stepmom reaches the end of her rope when a terrifying storm destroys her house. So she doesn't hesitate to accept her sexy-but-forbidden neighbor's offer of temporary lodging.

Handsome farmer Clark Hudson longs to be free from his ex-wife's manipulations. Although preparing to fight for custody of his son, he jumps at the chance to help out his best gal pal from way back in high school. But when their "forever-friends" bond turns complicated as desires become too hot to handle, the upstanding man fears giving in to his heart might ruin a beautiful connection.

As Marlowe grapples with rebuilding or cutting her losses, she worries she'll mess up the relationship she holds most dear. And when Clark's former spouse makes money-grubbing demands, the single father must risk it all to guarantee them both a loving future.
