Book excerpt: Feel My Love: As a wedding photographer, I get to witness the magic, the romance, and the fairy tale without getting close enough for it to ever sting me again. Until Nick. I broke my number one rule and slept with the best man. How could I resist his sexy good looks and the seductive offer of one night with no strings attached? The Way You Are: I thrive on taking a few ordinary flowers and turning them into something breath-taking. But no matter how reliable my talent or sunny my personality is, my delivery van isn’t. When the grumpy, sexy as all get-out mechanic finally offers some assistance, I also show him my grandfather’s prized muscle car, hoping he can restore it. After one hot night on the hood, ignoring my attraction to him is impossible. Love Me Like You Do: When my best friend asked me to be his fake girlfriend in order to pursue custody of his daughter, I didn’t hesitate to help out. Living together, sharing his bed, and waking up in his arms, quickly rekindle the long-forgotten childhood crush I once had on him. I can’t ignore his charm, the way I feel in his arms, or how amazing he is with his daughter. I remind myself daily that our relationship isn’t real, until he proposes with his grandmother’s ring. Harrison is determined to prove to me that the fairy-tales are real, but I know from experience happy ever afters don’t exist. Give Me A Reason: Finn’s my best friend’s brother and co-worker. He doesn’t believe in love and I’m a hopeless romantic. We clash about everything except our undeniable attraction to each other. After one hot night on a hotel rooftop, we agree to a no-strings-attached fling. The only problem is our boss has this rule against co-workers dating. As the newest wedding planner, I can’t afford to lose my job. But each day, I fall more for him and his little girl. I want to show him that anything’s possible, even a forever kind of love. But when everything comes crashing down, will I lose my chance at love? Somebody to Love: My best friend, Gia, has a rule for her employees and her friends: No dating her brothers. But Leo Giovanni is the guy I’d secretly crushed on since high school—who also happens to be Gia’s eldest brother. Leo has always had a special relationship with my daughter, but when he starts coming around more, taking us out on dates, building Evie a playhouse, and whispering sweet Italian words to me, I find myself lowering the walls I’d erected around my heart. How can we make a relationship last when everything is so stacked against us? Everything About You: Silas Sharpe is enemy number one—my biggest competitor and my brothers’ best friend. Seeing an opportunity to “spy” on the offerings at Chesapeake Resort under the guise of attending a “friend’s” wedding, I took it, dragging my best friend and my brother with me. When Silas cornered me in a utility closet during the wedding reception, I finally succumbed to the years of pent-up frustration and hate, giving in to my baser instincts. This was supposed to be a onetime thing, but in true Silas Sharpe fashion, he refused to give up until he had the one thing that had eluded him for years—me.

You know, the kind that withstands nightmares and bad jokes, unwashed dishes in the sink and lack of lube. Yeah, that happened. These boys own me.
