Winter recently left her husband and is determined to build a relationship with her sister.  Wanting one with her terribly but also scared to do so.  But not anymore.  She leaves her life behind and moves to the small town where her sister is living in the hopes that they can have that sister bond Winter always wanted.  On her first night there, she meets Theo and it was the funniest thing in the world but didn't really enamor Winter to Theo.  But after a little bit too much tequila they end up enjoying each other and make a one night only contract on the back of a drink coaster from the hotel bar.  Their one night only coaster contract gave them both more than they were expecting. Theo disappears for 18 months to come back to the surprise of his life.  

I swear the books in this series keep getting better and better.  I am thoroughly obsessed with this world and the characters.  Theo and Winter . . . man, they left me speechless.  I adored every thing about this book and their story.  I loved how all in he was from day one.  I loved his dirty mouth.  My heart broke when he was devastated by missing out the first 9 months of his life.  His reaction had me in tears.  I loved how he fought for her and defended her.  Swoon.  I really enjoyed the redemption of Winter and getting to know her better.  Understanding where she came from helped me to enjoy her story more.  I wasn't expecting to love her as much as I did after Flawless but I truly did.  Not only did I understand her better after hearing her back story but I think breaking away from Dr. Douche and having Vivi really changed her and made her a better person.  Te vivo.
