As close friends and coworkers, attorney Zoe Riva and tech genius Connor Ashton know they can never get involved.

Never.

Ever.

Until a scooter accident lands Zoe in Connor’s arms—and his overnight custody—and she starts to see a man she’s never seen before. With her career and her heart on the line, Zoe can’t afford to take any chances. But when combustible chemistry takes over, even the smartest people in the room can make the biggest of mistakes…

EXCERPT

 

Zoe Riva looked down at the electric scooter and tried to portray an air of confidence. It was seven

a.m. on a chilly Saturday morning in November, and though the occasional car zipped past on the

Embarcadero, there were only a few pedestrians walking and running in the normally busy area in

downtown San Francisco.

Which was precisely what she had hoped.

Because if she went down, she wanted as few witnesses as possible.

“You and me, baby,” she muttered, patting the straight handlebar. “Let’s do this.”

The e-scooter was shaped like an oversize Razor scooter, with larger wheels, a bigger deck, and

a thicker post than the child’s version to accommodate the motor. Everyone said they were easy to

ride. There was some balance involved, seeing as the scooter only had two wheels, but given all the

people that she’d seen zipping around on them throughout the summer and early fall, it couldn’t be

too hard.

Could it?

Granted, she wasn’t the most coordinated person in the world. And yes, she had always been

the last person picked in gym class. Still, she could ride a scooter, right?

“Confidence, Zoe,” she told herself, not caring that anyone walking past would think she was

crazy. “You can do this.”

She had rented the scooter from a small bank of them near Rincon Park and planned to ride

down Embarcadero to Fisherman’s Wharf. Short and easy. No turns. Protected bike lane.

What could go wrong?
