Something Like Spring

She was told her season was over. He arrived like spring.

Vanessa Summers is fifty years old, freshly divorced, and finally free. Discarded by the husband who traded her for a younger woman, she's spent six years rebuilding a life on her own terms: her own name, her own money, her own quiet. She's not looking for love. She's certain that part of her life is closed for good.

Then she walks out of her favorite restaurant with the wrong bag of takeout, refuses to apologize for it, and comes face to face with the most dangerous man in the city.
