Itβs been six years since Marcus Peterson and Reuben Kelly broke up, but theyβve made it work as friends and coworkers. That is until a few too many drinks at the company Christmas party leads to a night they both regret.
Eight awkward weeks later, when their bossβReubenβs dadβneeds someone to fill in at a trade show, Marcus and Reuben find themselves in close confines. A road trip, a booth, a hotel room... and thatβs before the weather goes south.
Thereβs no escape from each other, and thereβs no ignoring the guilt, the awkwardness... and the spark that desperately wants to come back to life. Because if thereβs one thing that hasnβt changed after all this time, itβs how they feel about each other.
But if they canβt cut through all the barriers keeping them apart, this old flame will go out for good.
