English Summary/英文概要: Is your first love worth a second chance…?
Colleen O’Rourke is in love with love…just not when it comes to herself. Most nights, she can be found behind the bar at the Manningsport, New York, tavern she owns with her twin brother, doling out romantic advice to the lovelorn, mixing martinis and staying more or less happily single. See, ten years ago, Lucas Campbell broke her heart…an experience Colleen doesn’t want to have again, thanks. Since then, she’s been happy with a fling here and there, some elite-level flirting and playing matchmaker to her friends.
But a family emergency has brought Lucas back to town, handsome as ever and still the only man who’s ever been able to crack her defenses. Seems like maybe they’ve got some unfinished business waiting for them—but to find out, Colleen has to let her guard down, or risk losing a second chance with the only man she’s ever loved.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 初恋值得重来吗? ... ? 科琳·奥罗克深爱着爱情……只是当爱情降临到自己身上时,她却无动于衷。大多数夜晚,她都会在纽约曼宁斯波特酒馆的吧台后方消磨时光——这家由她与双胞胎兄弟共同经营的酒馆里,她为失恋者提供浪漫建议、调制马提尼鸡尾酒,过着相对幸福的单身生活。要知道,十年前卢卡斯·坎贝尔曾让她心碎不已……这段经历可不想再重演,多亏了这段感情。此后她便乐此不疲地与人短暂交往,偶尔上演高端调情戏码,还充当着朋友间的媒人角色。
然而一场家庭变故让卢卡斯重返小镇,他依旧英俊潇洒,仍是唯一能攻破她防线的男人。看来他们之间还有未了之事——但科琳必须放下戒备,否则将失去与唯一挚爱重修旧好的机会。(Sandy)
