  Â
   Jesse Oliver was a medic in Afghanistan, but back home in Pine Mountain heâ€™s happy to switch gears as the Double Shot barâ€™s new sous chef. When his apartment floods and his old Army buddy offers the familyâ€™s dilapidated lake house as temporary quarters, Jesse thinks a little remodeling on the creaky duplex sounds like a fair return favor. Thatâ€™s before he sets eyes on the gorgeous woman moving into the other side of the cabinâ€”and discovers sheâ€™s his buddyâ€™s kid sister, a.k.a totally off limits.

   Kat McMarrin has fought hard for her space, and sheâ€™s not too interested in sharing it. Of course, her job as a physical therapist means she wonâ€™t see much of Jesse, even if heâ€™s a few thin floorboards awayâ€”unless she seeks him out. And with his sculpted body and slow-burn gaze, she might be tempted. Maybe the fixer-upper projects she has planned for the cabin will keep her mind off him. Or maybe her instincts to strip the place down will get out of handâ€¦
