Keri Morgan has spent her life around Your Mother's Worst Nightmare, the world-famous rock band led by her brother, Tristan. Six years ago, Nate Nickerson?Tristan's best friend and bandmate?talked her into joining the tour as merch manager to keep Tristan from self-destructing.
Now, with Tristan sober and settled, Keri and Nate are tangled up in a very physical, no-strings-attached arrangement?just fun, toe-curling distractions, no feelings, no complications, and free from the panic and anxiety she refuses to let rule her life.
The problem? Nate has fallen hard for her and is acting like there's some kind of life checklist they're supposed to be working through, while Keri's still trying to find where she put hers... if she even has one.
When Keri finally admits that maybe, just maybe, he's the calm to her storm, life throws them a curveball?a very unexpected, very high-stakes situation neither of them saw coming (which was nowhere on her life's bingo card) and when Nate freezes up at the worst possible moment, he suddenly isn't so sure he can be the steady, unshakable rock she needs him to be.
But just as Keri stops running and admits her feelings for him, he's the one pulling away, convinced he's not strong enough for her. Now, she must convince him otherwise... before he walks away forever.
