She only meant to make her ex look twice. Then the wrong man looked first.
At forty-four, Giselle Dawkins is done being gracious. Done smiling through her ex's new marriage like it did not cost her anything. Done being the dependable one, the woman expected to make every awkward moment easier for everyone except herself.
So when another celebration for the happy couple lands on the calendar, Giselle buys a social media star's designer castoffs, gets her hair laid, and walks into her grandson's birthday party ready to disturb one man's peace. The problem is, the man watching is not her ex. It's Jarrett Simmons. Twenty-nine, too fine, and a pro basketball player between seasons.
Jarrett knows better than to feed the headlines, but Giselle is hard to ignore and even harder to leave alone.
One look becomes one night. One night becomes a secret. And what starts as petty revenge turns into something hotter, softer, and much harder to explain.
When the truth gets out, everyone has something to say about a forty-four-year-old grandmother, a younger athlete, and the want neither of them could leave alone.
Giselle Dawkins came to disturb her ex's peace. She did not expect Jarrett Simmons to become the one disturbing hers.
