When Shelby gets called away from a party on a plumbing emergency, she wasn't expecting to come face to face with a clumsy naked Irish ex-soldier with his foot stuck in a toilet. What's more, the man's dealing with a parrot that cusses in Gaelic, a feral bird-nabbing Siamese cat, and his grandmother's falling-down old house. He's a handful ... but a blazing hot, redheaded, cinnamon-freckled, alabaster-skinned marble statue of a handful who kisses like the gods taught him how.
It doesn't take Shelby long to learn, however, that Killian Doyle is far from perfect. He's slunk away from the army in disgrace, hiding an unbearable guilty secret, and all he wants is to start life over. He thinks this time that Shelby can be the key. But then his past comes looking for him in the form of a curvy, raven-haired ex, bearing news that can end everything Shelby and Killian are trying to build.
