My life was a dream…
 
Sold-out concerts, number one hits, and a different city every night…
 
I’d been coined America’s Sweetheart and learned to live by the rules. That was until I met him. 
 
Two years ago I practically threw myself at Charlie Higgins, my mom’s newest ranch hand.
 
With one kiss he took my breath away, but before it went any further, he turned me away telling me to forget about him.
 
I took my bruised heart back to Nashville and did what country singers do best and wrote a song about it. I just never expected it to be a number one hit.
 
Now I’m back for my cousin’s wedding. And Charlie isn’t as in love with the song as the rest of the world.
 
But the way he’s looking at me makes me think maybe there’s a chance…this time he won’t tell me to go. 
 
As long as the secret I’m keeping doesn’t scare him away.

Loyal, reliable… predictable even, I’ve always done what’s expected of me. Stay out of trouble, get my teaching degree and build a respectable career as a college professor. The job comes with a long list of rules and at the top of that list is no fraternizing with students. Following the rules seemed easy enough, until a dark, tortured boy sat outside my office waiting for me. His voice told me it was his grade he was worried about, but the deep onyx pools of his eyes told me more as they shook the solid ground I’d always stood on. 
 
Am I willing to risk my career, my carefully built reputation, to help one so filled with pain I can taste it?

As graduation nears I find myself drawn to the mysterious professor like a moth to a flame. Just one meeting with the man that has been staring in my dreams has my soul screaming for him to hold me, comfort me. A relationship isn’t just frowned upon, it’s forbidden, but the heart doesn’t always know the difference. 
 
Can I trust my mangled heart in his perfect life when my past repeats itself or will he destroy what is left of me?

After spending all her twenties attending the weddings of her close friends and peers and having nothing but bad luck in the area of love despite her best-laid plans, Spring decides she’s skipping the love and marriage and headed straight to the baby carriage with the decision to get artificially inseminated.

 

But at her best friend’s wedding, she meets the best man, Bilal, and they click over a mutual admiration for art and geek culture.
He’s not looking for a relationship. Even if he was, he just broke off an engagement two months before he was supposed to say “I do,” and he’s not willing to talk about it.
Huge red flag.
It’s easy for Spring to overlook, though. Not only is he a nice guy, but he sees the woman who doesn’t need anyone to take care of her but wants to be taken care of anyway.
What they decide to start together is supposed to be casual, giving Spring a chance to enjoy the fun of a relationship as long as it will last before she carries out her baby plans.
However, slowly but surely, the line between casual and serious starts to blur, and Spring has to start thinking about the tough questions. Do she and Bilal really want the same things? Does it really matter?
Just maybe what she plans for and what the universe gives her will be the exact same thing. And if it’s not, dare she hope for something better?

What happens when a bossy, smart-mouthed, independent woman is determined to submit to a man who can barely tie his own necktie? 
Something is bound to unravel…
