Donovan Family

I spent the night with a hot, grumpy stranger in an airport hotel. No, not like that. Get your mind out of the gutter. It was just sleeping...and maybe a little cuddling. Long story short, I embarrassed the heck out of myself, but at least I never have to see him again. Except the universe is clearly out to get me, because I arrive at my new job on Monday morning, and who's the first person I see? Hot stranger himself: Liam Donovan. AKA, my new boss. AKA, Annie, you are so freaking screwed. While the HR rule book doesn't explicitly say you can't share a bed with your boss, I can read between the lines, and I need this job. Which is why I have to pretend that night never happened. Luckily for me, sexy as Liam-excuse me, Mr. Donovan-is, he's surly, rude, and totally not my type. Or so I keep telling myself, because I'm starting to think there's a warm, gooey cinnamon roll with extra frosting lurking beneath that impressive, muscular form. I promised I'd never choose between my career and love, but when a scandal threatens to break, that promise could prove impossible to keep...

Hopelessly friend-zoned by my best friend, I'm shocked when the media breaks a story that he's getting married...and that his mysterious fiancée is me?! I fell in love with Carter James Callahan's smart-mouthed smirk long before it was labeled "The Sexiest Smile in Hollywood." I also fell for his broad, muscular shoulders, his impossibly blue eyes, his... Nope! Not going there anymore. Because while Carter may frequent my dreams every night, I will only ever frequent his friend zone, which is why I'm on an official mission to rid myself of my pesky feelings for him. I'm gonna put myself out there, start dating, and stop hopelessly crushing on my best friend. Deep down, I know this is for the best. It would never work between us: I'm a single mom with an impressive collection of stained sweatpants; he's a serial-dating celeb heartthrob who never wants to be tied down to anything or anyone. So, when the media breaks a story that Carter is getting married, nobody is more shocked than I am. Especially when I click on the article and see that his mysterious fiancée is... me?!
