Second chance? Not a chance in hell.
​
Cocky, golden-retriever Hudson Landry broke my heart, and I won’t let him forget it.
​
I’ve avoided Heartwood at all costs. A decade later, I’m back to consult on the new community arts center—and seeing Hudson reignites a red-hot rage that could burn me alive.
​
Just my luck, his construction company won the bid for the build, so I’m stuck working with my ex. Worse? We’re both competing to lead the project, and only one of us can come out on top.
​
I swore I’d never forgive him. But he’s everything I fell for ten years ago–sweet, loyal, endlessly kind. He’s reminding me of the girl I used to be…and making me question everything I thought I knew about the boy who broke me.
​
Now, I can’t remember why I hated him in the first place.
​
The Ex Project is the third interconnected standalone in the Heartwood Series, with a guaranteed happily ever after!
