From the author of the smash hit Diva Diaries comes this unforgettable story of a woman who is ready to trade her long-term hopes for some short-term pleasure

Jordan Moore is in the middle of a breakdown. Thirty-four years old and newly single, she has given custody of her son to her ex-husband and now regrets the decision; her ex-husband is getting married again; and after a year of disappointments from Jayon, her best friend-turned-boyfriend, she has given up on true love. All her years of living a moral, straight-laced, practical life seem to have gotten her nowhere. Now she wants to walk on the wild side and do a little heartbreaking of her own.

It does not take Jordan long to find the rowdy, steamy pleasure that she seeks--with no strings attached, of course--and she is content with her new attitude. By using men the way she has been used, Jordan believes that she is somehow evening the score. But when she meets Marcus, a wonderful, caring gentleman who sees through all of her guardedness, she is thrown for a loop. Is he another Mr. Wrong to be avoided at all costs? Or will Jordan realize that true love is standing right in front of her. . .before it is too late?
