Steam — MacKenzie Stowe

The temperature's rising in the little town of Easton. Eliza Gardner never thought she'd come back to Easton - much less divorced, broke and humiliated. But after her husband ran off, she had nowhere else to go... Nowhere except the small town she grew up in - the one she once couldn't wait to leave... Now Eliza is desperately trying to figure out the next chapter of her life - and that's when she runs into the last person she ever expected to see again - childhood acquaintance Nate Ryder. Now Nate's all grown up - and, as Eliza embarrassingly realizes, in all the right places. Nathan Ryder never expect to run into Eliza again - somebody he'd only ever known as a goofy kid who once played with his best friend's little sister. Back in those days, he'd never given Eliza a second look... But seeing her again? After all those years? Nate's sure giving her a second look now... And a third. He knows her life isn't what she wants it to be, and she isn't look for more out of her time in Easton than a good-looking distraction... But Nate thinks he might be just what Eliza needs... If only he could convince her of that.
