Synopsis

Ten years ago, she broke her first love’s heart. Now, like it or not, she’s his wedding date.
Katie finds her hometown friend’s wedding invitation buried under a stack of mail and makes the last-minute decision to escape her demanding job long enough to attend. She’s given little thought to being minus a plus one until the bride suggests she attend with another single. Anticipating polite conversation with a stranger over the plated entrée, Katie agrees... and finds herself face-to-face with her high school boyfriend, whom she hasn’t seen since she dumped him after graduation.
Once a shy, gawky teenager, Chase has grown into a strong, handsome man. Yet he never escaped the heartache of Katie’s sharp rejection. For years, he’s distracted himself with work. Now, his time is filled with raising his nephew after his brother and sister-in-law died in a car accident. The last thing he needs is a painful reminder of the past. Yet thanks to his cousin, the two meet again and realize the spark of attraction between them is still burning bright.
But Katie needs to return to her job, and Chase can’t uproot his orphaned nephew. Can the pair reconcile and build a future together?
