Friends with benefits was never the plan. Melanie Jacobs is in trouble. With three jobs - including running her ranch - and dwindling funds, she's exhausted. Not to mention desperately trying to hide a secret. Unfortunately, her best friend Colton Freeze knows all too well that's something is going on, and he won't give up until he knows exactly what he needs to fix. Then Colton learns the truth - Melanie's future happiness rests in the fickle hands of fate, and her chances for having a family are shrinking with every passing day.

Her only comfort is Colton, but when a heated argument between them turns into an even hotter kiss, the boundaries of their friendship are erased, leaving only a scorching-hot hunger for more. Every kiss - every touch - is a stolen pleasure. But will their new friends-with-sexy-benefits arrangement bring them closer together, or destroy everything they once shared?
