Summary

Never gonna happen. 
 
 
 
Xavier swore he'd never move back to the flyspeck of a town he'd grown up in and he kept that promise for over twenty years. Now, he's back for good. 
 
 
 
Vincent never left. After college, he stayed in town to be close to his elderly parents. These days he's the single dad of a fifteen-year-old daughter and working two jobs. He's perfectly happy with his life. Right? 
 
 
 
Xavier's new mission is to breathe life back into Cooper Springs, but his stodgy, straight-laced, rule-following neighbor, Vincent Barone—is getting in the way. 
 
 
 
Vincent doesn't have time to date. And he certainly wouldn't date his flashy, arrogant, neighbor whom he absolutely did not have a crush on back in high school. 
 
 
 
Can two lifelong enemies move from hate to something more? Then there's the matter of the grisly discovery in the woods—murder is bad for business. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.
