"Loving you was like being struck by lightning. But lightning can strike twice."

Those words were the only thing besides her daughter that Quinn Reynolds had left after her husband died. Three years later, she's still trying to find herself again, aching to return to the kitchen as a pastry chef.

When a chef position opens at a local bar, she finally steps back into the kitchen and into the orbit of Noah Sullivan -- her late husband's grumpy, emotionally unavailable best friend. He's made it clear he doesn't do love, marriage, or kids. She's not looking for anything either. But when sparks fly between them every time they touch, Quinn proposes something simple: no strings, just comfort.

But nothing stays simple in a small town like Brockhurst. As the days turn into nights and walls begin to fall, Quinn finds herself sharing her grief, while Noah wrestles with the guilt and loyalty he's carried for years.

Now, caught between honoring the past and risking their hearts, they must decide if they're brave enough to weather the storm together.

Because sometimes, lightning really does strike twice.
