ROUGH EDGES (en Inglés) - Riley Tate

Anna Owens has built a life she can control: her own design studio, her Boston apartment, her cat, and enough hard-earned independence to know better than to let another man complicate it.

Four quiet days in a secluded cabin are supposed to be an escape. Then a storm brings Chris Lawson back.

A fallen tree leaves him stranded overnight, and suddenly Anna's carefully planned solitude includes shared meals, late-night conversations, arguments about old furniture, and an attraction that becomes harder to dismiss every time Chris looks at her. He's calm, capable, unexpectedly funny-and far too easy to want.

But the closer Anna gets to him, the more she realizes there is far more to Chris than the quiet man she met in Vermont. And wanting someone is one thing. Trusting them enough to make room in the life you've fought to build is something else entirely.
