Everly Fletcher returns to Fletcher Mountain after four years in Dublin, ready to help launch her aunt's animal rescue center. She considers herself the family's matchmaking expert, though her own romantic track record tells a different story. Her plans for a peaceful summer shatter when Conri "Wolf" Reilly arrives needing a place to stay. Wolf is her college roommate's twin brother, a brooding Irish rugby player whose bad reputation has destroyed his professional prospects. A training camp in Denver offers him one last chance at redemption. Everly reluctantly agrees to let him volunteer at the rescue center in exchange for housing. Now she lives and works beside the tattooed grump who treats her like an annoyance but looks at her with undeniable hunger. Wolf came to America to repair his image, not fall for his sister's best friend. The more time he spends with Everly, the harder he finds it to maintain his distance. Everly faces a choice between following her own matchmaking rules or embracing her attraction to this particular bad boy.
