I don't do relationships. I haven't ever since the one man I thought was the one ended up shattering my poor, fragile heart. I swore them off, steering clear of them like a bad case of the flu. I went through my days hopping in bed with one man and waking up next to another. It was a foolproof plan meant to keep my heart in one piece, and so far, it had been working for me just fine. But on a trip with my best friend, Braelynn, down to New Orleans for the big Mardi Gras celebration, I found more than I was hoping for. The whole point was to have fun and not worry about a damn thing. A new-to-me city meant a whole new line up of the male species I was dying to try for the night. Instead, I ran into a guy from so long ago who had never caught my eye before. Until now. From USA Today Bestselling Author, Bella Emy, comes the second story in the Kaleidoscope Skies series!
