BLURB:

Faye Wilson is a chronic homebody in desperate need of a fun makeover. She’s processing a recent break-up in all of her usual ways: working too much and ignoring those Bad Feelings. Determined to remake herself, she creates “Faye’s Hierarchy of Fun,” a foolproof guide to become her most fun self at work and in her personal life. Oh, and in bed.

Eli Miller may have gone overboard in the fun department, and he’s finally ready to get serious. Five years failing to balance work and play in New York City has left him with nothing but an empty savings account and a longing for something stable and real. A move back to his hometown in North Carolina is just the fresh start he needs to get back on track, or so he thinks.

When Eli starts a new job that brings him face to face with Faye—his best friend’s ex, and the woman he tried (and failed) to not think about for years—his fresh start gets a little more complicated. Especially when he volunteers to help Faye check off items on her Fun List. As they spend more time together, feelings develop that could ruin their best-laid plans. Or maybe they’ll learn that finding happiness isn’t about being fun or being serious, but about finding the person that makes it easy to be both.
