How do you tell your best friend you are in love with her little brother?
It wasn't exactly love, at first, for Maria. For years, Daniel was always just her best friend's little brother. Then as they got older, he got sexier, and more charming. Charming, just like the guys in the romance books she loved to read.
Daniel wasn't interested in anything serious. His business made him believe falling in love wasn't worth the ultimate loss. Because at Boykins Funeral Home, he saw many heartbroken widows.
He was sure he'd rather avoid love than suffer loss. Until he fell for Maria.
