When your heart's been broken, no strings attached sounds like a pretty good deal.

She hopes that a fresh start in a different place will be what she needs to move on with her life. She’s been trapped in a lukewarm long-term relationship for many years and now that she’s got out, she has no desire to go back. No way. She just wants some fun with no strings attached.

Jake’s been burned by love before and he has no intention of having it happen again.
When Miranda and Jake meet, sparks fly but neither of them wants anything but a good time. But when difficulties pop up that drive them apart, they discover that maybe they both want something more.

An Excerpt from Feels Like Forever
“It’s nothing, Miranda.”
“Of course, Jake, and we’re nothing too. I’m not worried about your ex. No strings, remember?”
I watched her finish the toast in two bites.
“I have to go anyway."
She was wearing a pair of my shorts and an old T-shirt of mine, and she looked absolutely gorgeous. I followed her to the bedroom and watched her put on the black dress again. She had nothing else to wear.
“I’ll drive you home.”
“It’s okay. I’ll grab a cab. It’s fine.”
In silence, I sat on the arm of the couch as she called a cab.
“Well, I better go wait down there. Thanks, Jake. I had a wonderful time,” she said, turning away from me to put on her coat.
I didn’t know what to say to reassure her, to calm whatever flurry of fear was storming inside of her. But I had to try.
She was turning the handle to go out when I came up behind her and pushed the door shut. She turned around, fidgeting with her mittens, not wanting to meet my eye.
I put my finger under her chin and tilted her head up.
“We are not nothing,” I said. Then I kissed her with all the passion she stirred in me. I put everything into that kiss — the longing, the desire for her body, and also the yearning for something more than just the physical bond we already shared.
She kissed me back with just as much fire, but with a touch of desperation — like it might be the last time.
She pulled back then, her eyes searching mine. In a heartbeat, she was gone.
