She refuses to let her brother's opinions or unwritten rules dictate her choices. The attraction between them ignites despite Barrett's loyalty to guy code. Harmony pushes past the boundaries that should separate them. Their secret relationship burns hot until discovery threatens everything. Barrett must choose between his friendship and his heart. Harmony faces the possibility that wanting Barrett might cost her the family connection she values.
