Josie Jensen has finally started over.

After a messy divorce, she pours everything she has into opening Scoop & Swirl, the ice cream shop she's dreamed about for years. The last thing she wants is another man in her life.

Especially not Rome.

The tattoo artist across the street is younger, covered in ink, and entirely too handsome for his own good. He's also stubborn, protective, and keeps showing up when she needs him most.

Rome isn't looking for forever. Until Josie.

Now he can't stop thinking about the curvy woman with the smart mouth and the sweetest smile he's ever seen. But someone is determined to destroy everything she's built.

Rome spent years building his own life. Now he'll do whatever it takes to protect the woman who's slowly becoming his whole world.
