LUCK BE A LADY by Audra North

Lucky in Love #2

He's a mistake she can't afford to make... and a temptation she can't resist.

Fifteen years ago, Michael Faraday's best friend walked out of his life without so much as a goodbye when her family moved to America. He managed to convinced himself that it didn't matter... after all, they'd been only teenagers when it happened. But when he hears that she's back in Ireland, even if only temporarily, feelings he thought had been buried long ago come rushing to the surface.

Aoife Fitzpatrick can think of a thousand places she'd rather be than Dublin, but it's simply too difficult to establish a European headquarters for her cosmetics company from thousands of miles away. Her plan is to be in Ireland for only as long as it takes to get the ball rolling. As soon as she can, she'll leave this country with its unhappy memories and hopefully won't return for another fifteen years at least.

When Michael Faraday suddenly reappears in her life, Aoife realizes that her teenage crush on him has evolved into a very adult attraction. With their lives built firmly and separately across the expanse of an ocean, can she keep her emotions from becoming involved this time? Or will she find herself fleeing Ireland in heartbreak all over again?
