No Place Like You

Description

A soulful, sexy second-chance, friends-to-lovers romance about healing, timing, and the kind of tension you can’t ignore even when you want to.

Lauryn M. Lindsey has a new job, a sleek condo with panoramic views, and a plan to finally put herself first after walking away from an 11-year relationship with a man who took up too much space-literally and emotionally. Her post-break up plan was simple: move back to Chicago, no dating, no distractions. However, when Perry Mitchell, her disarmingly charming college friend, keeps reappearing, simplicity goes out the window. He remembers too much, looks too good, and makes her feel way more than she’s ready for.

Perry’s life was good – travel, ambition, work that kept him sharp, a home he was finally shaping into his own. He lived with focus, a man fully in his stride. Then Lauryn appears, and his resolve slips. After more than a decade, she was still the one thing he’d never outgrown, the pull he’d never severed. And now, with her in front of him, he wonders if this is the second chance he never thought he would get. The only question: will she stay this time?
