She may not have been ready to marry him back then, but she never stopped loving him. Yet every time she runs into Daniel, she can tell his hurt and anger haven’t faded; forgiveness won’t be so easy. Then his mother falls gravely ill and her only request is for Julie and Daniel to resume their happily-ever-after. Can they make her wish come true? Sugar and Spice: Jayne Gilbert longs to attend her high school reunion with a handsome man on her arm. Still single ten years after graduation, Jayne wants nothing more than to prove her former bullies wrong. The only romances in her life are those she reads about, so at the encouragement of her coworker, a determined Jayne decides to do her research. As Jayne prepares to teach herself how to land a man, an encounter with her neighbor Riley Chambers quickly changes everything. Just when she believed she’d be alone forever, Jayne finds herself falling for Riley in ways she never expected. Riley is just as bold and mysterious as Jayne is prim and proper. Opposites may attract, but are Riley and Jayne built to last?
