Suppose the solution to all your problems is the one thing you never wanted… It figures the one time Sabrina Cassidy is determined to do the responsible thing, karma kicks in. After four years on the road chasing her musical dream, she’s stranded six hours from home with no money, a ruined credit history—and morning sickness. Out of options, she swallows her legendary independent streak and calls the only person who won’t hang up on her. Luke, the man she left behind. Marc Sterling’s first instinct is to protect his business partner and best friend from another broken heart. That means letting her think she’s talking to Luke, then finding a way to send her in the opposite direction. When he shows up at her hotel room, there’s something in the air beside their customary insults. Sure, her rebellious attitude, smart mouth—and purple panties—still drive him crazy, but now it’s a different kind of crazy. The kind that has him driving her home instead of to the nearest airport. And when Luke offers to solve all her problems if she’ll only say “I do”, Marc realizes he’s just crazy enough—about her—to forget whose heart he wanted to protect. Warning: Contains two people who don’t like each other very much, a Toyota that can’t quite handle the road trip home, and a spontaneous proposal. Or two. Or three. And foreplay with—what else—pie filling.
A girl, a guy, a set of handcuffs What more could happily ever after possibly need? Luke Hamiltons requirements for the perfect woman are straightforward: live, work and play in his beloved hometownand get along with his mother. Dr. Kat Daytons got it all. And Lukes noticed. Its obvious to him that his long-time friend belongs with him, especially after the world-rocking kiss she lays on him at his birthday party. While Kat cant deny shes imagined a kiss like thatand morefor years, shes less convinced theyre destined for happily ever after. Still, Luke figures thats nothing a friendly kidnapping and a three-day road trip wont fix. Kat would love to let Luke in, but if he discovers the truththat committee meetings bore her to tears and shed rather have a root-canal than go to another potluckhis white-picket-fence dreams will be crushed. Being stuck in an RV with Luke should be three days of flirtatious fun, but for Kat its heavenly hell. The close confines and good old-fashioned lust are making a mockery of her perfect-woman façade, and if he finds out about the mistake that might cost her joband force her to leave town for gooditll take more than a sexy pair of handcuffs to keep him close. Warning: Contains a man who's willing to do anything for the perfect woman, an RV and surprise road-trip to help him prove it, and a woman who's wondering just what the hell she's gotten into.
