A sassy and sporty bike shop owner. Her best friend and secret crush. Will suspicious developments and danger at the shop push Tess and Weston to finally admit their feelings for each other?
Tess Gem, the tomboy-ish and daring bike shop owner of Jade Valley, has been falling for her best friend Weston Darrough over the past few years. The more time she and Weston spend together biking, hiking, working out, or adventuring, the more convinced she is that he is the perfect man for her. Too bad she's not the perfect woman for him- she doesn't even know how to do her make up and dress in "girly" clothes. Will Weston ever see her as more than a buddy? She fights to keep her feelings hidden even as she wishes their relationship could evolve.
Weston Darrough, the amazingly talented and good-looking football coach of Jade Valley, is in love with Tess, even though she should be off-limits. Weston has learned from his past that he is too selfish for the likes of the innocent, kind, and optimistic Tess Gem. His mother and ex-wife are proof that Weston will end up ruining Tess in the end. Yet, the closer they become in their friendship, he finds himself yearning for more.
When a mysterious and attractive visitor arrives in town with an unusual interest in Tess and her shop, Weston becomes even more protective of her. Will the new developments and danger threatening Tess push her and Weston to finally reconsider their relationship, or are they forever stuck in the friend zone?
