Sammi Harris, a brilliant young filmmaker who is comfortable in her own skin, is starting over. Navigating a tricky divorce with her celebrated musician husband, she is determined to build a single life centered on herself, her friends and career, and on dating for fun and pleasure.

So when she meets Michael Shelly, an equally brilliant, beautiful man who is clearly also an apex player, she decides he would be a perfect casual playmate.
They embark on an intensely sensual sexual affair. With each touch and kiss, Sammi can feel the defenses around her heart slipping. But just as she begins to believe she could let herself fall for Michael, secrets from her past erupt, reminding her of the danger and devastation that love can wreak. Will she douse the spark of true love and remain fiercely single? Or can Sammi trust in him -and in herself -and ignite the most passionate love of her lifetime?
