Madeline Everly wants to climb her muscular bartender like a mountain, but he seems opposed to the idea . After Mads starts working alongside Exel behind the bar, will he finally give in to her? When Madeline's misogynistic boss, overbearing mother, and grudge-holding sister become too much to bear, it's time to let off a little steam. Mads has a wild streak, and she doesn't apologize for it. She likes men, and she has her sights set on one in particular-Exel Kinley. If she can check him off her to-do list, maybe he won't take up so much room in her head. As nothing in her life has ever been permanent, Mads has no problems going through men like she goes through gin and tonics at happy hour. Can she have the adventure she wants and the pleasure she craves, all from the same man?
