Old sparks. New rules. Zero chance they stay Just Friends Again.
Maya Wilson has spent her life saying yes to everyone but herself. After bailing on yet another trip with her best friend in order to babysit her niece, Maya is done putting her life on pause, and she has a list of things to do before her birthday to prove it.
A weekend getaway to Lake Michigan with her friends is supposed to be the first step toward making a change...until she realizes her high-school sweetheart Heath Mitchell, who she hasn't seen in eight years, is there.
Heath is rebuilding after losing himself in an unhappy marriage. He cooks, he cleans, and he shares his home with a rescued orange cat named Legolas who has more personality than most people. But something is still missing until Maya walks back into his life like fate throwing him a lifeline.
One weekend is all it takes for the ember to reignite, but their shared history is a shadow over every moment. When Heath offers to help Maya with her list, they decide to be Just Friends Again, but nothing about their chemistry feels just friendly.
Can Maya learn how to choose herself without losing the second chance she never expected to get?
