“Paige Toon warms your heart, shatters it in pieces, then puts it back together again and again.” —Abby Jimenez

Sometimes the heart wants what the heart can’t have.

Grace has loved Jackson since she was fifteen. Spending every summer together exploring his grandfather’s chateau and the tumbling rivers of the gorgeous Ardèche region of France, they were best friends. Until he married someone else.

Three years later, a newly single Jackson re-enters Grace’s life with an irresistible offer: her dream job in the very town where their story began. As memories from those idyllic summers flood back, Grace encounters another old friend Étienne, who proposes a plan to make Jackson jealous. Their scheme begins to work just as Grace finds herself questioning if the sparks between them might not be so pretend after all.

But games can be dangerous, and Étienne is harboring a secret that could shatter Grace’s heart.
