A sports star and an event promoter learn there's no safety net in love in this "fast paced and engaging" tale (Romance in Color).

As the reigning queen of competitive beach volleyball, Brianna Evans wants her career to go out with a bang. And what better send-off than a signature tournament sponsored by an exclusive high-end luxury resort? But Bree's heart could end up on the line. Her partner on the project is the irresistible man with whom she shared one perfect night in London . . . and never heard from again.

After great UK success, premier event promoter Wesley Adams is glad to be back on his North Carolina home turf. Until he discovers the collaborator on his next joint venture is the flawless beauty he spent an unforgettable evening with more than a year ago. Wes wants to finish what they started, but he can't risk derailing the project or hurting Bree. And when they finally give in to their growing passion, will a terrible secret from his past—and an escalating threat from Bree's—cost them their second chance?
