After a tragic fire killed her parents and destroyed her childhood home, Christy Knight knows her destiny may not lie in Destiny, Ohio anymore. And when her grandfather calls from Coral Cove, Florida in need of her help, Christy doesn’t bat an eye before jumping in the car and setting out to save the only family she has left. She just didn’t plan on having a handyman co-pilot along for the ride. Jack DuVall couldn’t let Christy drive all the way to Florida by herself. Because it’s not safe…certainly not because he doesn’t want to be away from her. Ever since he helped her break into her locked apartment, Jack hasn’t been able to get the feisty beauty out of his mind. And even though he’s still recovering from a broken heart and shattered trust, Jack feels the beginnings of something great with Christy. Now if he can just find a way to tell her he’s not a handyman…he’s a CEO…
