The fun and steamy new rom com of first loves and second chances - from the New York Times bestselling author of The Ex Talk.

Dani Dorfman needs an escape, so when she is offered a job in Amsterdam after getting dumped and fired, she's determined to make it work.

Unfortunately, her first week is a disaster - especially when she crashes her bike into Wouter van Leeuwen, her family's Dutch exchange student from ten years ago. Her first love, until he ghosted her...

Wouter is also at a crossroads - to inherit his canal family home, he needs to get married. And when Dani's job falls apart, she needs a visa.

Dani is certain Amsterdam is temporary. But could its quirks and a second chance romance become her reasons to stay?
