As for romance? Not today, Satan. That is, until high school heartthrob Adam Henderson crashes back into her life at their 20-year reunion. Sparks fly, but just when Janae considers dating again, the new superintendent of James' school district slashes his beloved arts program. Instead of getting her groove back, Janae gets her protest on. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eReturning home after twenty years, Adam jumps at the chance to reacquaint himself with Janae, the one who got away. But he's nearly reached his limit, juggling a meddling father, school politics, and--unbeknownst to him--Janae's ire. If he can't get the head of the PTA off his back after cutting programs that were costing the district money, his debut role as superintendent and his love life hang in the balance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen a school board meeting is called and they both realize they've been dating the enemy, Janae gives Adam two choices: restore the program or lose her. Adam proposes a third option: one weekend at his cabin to talk it all out--funding the arts, and old feelings too. When her girls cheer her on, Janae must decide if she's willing to risk it all. Armed with sass, sarcasm, and a suitcase full of emotional baggage, Janae and Adam discover that sometimes love shows up in the most infuriating and unexpectedly sexy ways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laquette\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Griffin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.52w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250773418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2025 pg. 67\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/08\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLaQuette\u003c\/b\u003e, author of \u003ci\u003eVanessa Jared's Got A Man\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eRoyal Bride Demand\u003c\/i\u003e, writes sexy, stylish, and sensational romance.
