I thought I’d enjoy some sun, go to the beach, and get a tan, but the universe has other plans for me...in the form of three dark-haired, handsome strangers. Logan: a sexy bad boy bartender whose charm works all too well on me. Elijah: a handsome and sweet cabana boy whose smile makes my heart swoon.

Of course, it couldn’t be that simple. It never is.

The most I can hope for is that when my older sister takes the throne, she’ll consider me unimportant enough to let me marry for love. First, I have to get her to the throne.

Craving her was wrong...losing her was a necessity. What we had was real, but it's over. Ancient history. She was under my skin, but I was under her dad's roof.
