After
too many bad decisions in romance, Emma is going on a man-fast. For the next
six months, she's fasting from men. No sex. No dating. No soulful gazes. No
fond memories of her first crush. She's going to spend the time focusing on her
career, getting in touch with herself, and helping her two best friends with
the launch of their new tea room. No men.
And
that includes her brother's best friend, Noah Hart, who has just returned to
their hometown.
She
doesn't want Noah anyway. He might be even hotter than he was before, but he's
not a nice guy anymore. He's made a fortune by acting ruthless in business, and
the last thing he's looking for is small-town domestic life. He doesn't even
want to be in town again, but a sick grandmother guilted him into it. Then he
has nerve to not even recognize Emma when he sees her again. Maybe it's been
seven years, but a decent guy would remember his best friend's little sister.
Noah
is not a decent guy. Anyway, Emma is on a man-fast. And she doesn't want Noah.
At
all.

Excerpt
Noah felt an emotional pull toward
her, that she seemed to understand him so well, even when he wasn’t sure he
understood himself.
But he shouldn’t—he really
shouldn’t—be feeling that way.
He cleared his throat. “And I
noticed your Man-Fast flew out the window.”
She gasped and straightened her
spine, which unfortunately called attention to the curve of her breasts. “What
are you talking about?”
Struggling not to gaze too fixedly
on the slight outline of nipple he could see beneath the white fabric of her
dress, he managed to say, “Your Man-Fast. With all the flirting you were doing,
I figured you’d given up on it.”
“I was not flirting!”
He lifted his eyebrows.
“Don’t you give me that snide
look,” she said, her lush lips turning down in a frown. “I was talking to some
people I know, same as you.”
“There was definitely more than
talking going on over here.” He had no idea why he was pursuing this. It was
stupid. Futile. It would just make things worse.
But he’d been bristling for too
long about all the guys falling over themselves around her, and it was going to
come out one way or the other.
“What are you talking about?” she
demanded. “I didn’t do anything but talk.”
“Right. You didn’t smile at them
and show them all that skin and make them think they might be getting lucky
later on.”
She gasped again. “I did nothing of
the kind.”
“Okay.”
“I didn’t! I was talking. A girl
can talk to guys without being accused of leading them on. I could say the same
thing about you—every time you talk to and smile at women.”
“I haven’t been talking to women
tonight.”
“You talked to a few.”
He tried to remember back to the
people he’d chatted with and only remembered two young women. “They were
married. I knew them from high school.”
“So? What’s your point? You can
flirt with married women, you know.”
“Are you saying you think I’m the
kind of guy who would do that?” His voice was now as angry as hers was.
She opened her mouth with some sort
of sharp reply, but she must have rethought it. She slumped slightly. “No. I
know you’re not.”
“Good.”
“It would be nice if you’d know I
wasn’t like that either.”
“I’d never think you’d come on to
married men.”
“You just think I’m some kind of
tease, torturing men for fun.”
Noah sighed and leaned against the
counter. “No. I really don’t.”
“Then why were you acting like that
then?”
Good question.
And a question he couldn’t possibly
answer honestly.
“I was just being an ass.”
“Yes. You were.”
“Sorry.”
Her frown was relaxing slightly,
and she was peering at him closely. “Okay then.”
“Okay?”
“Yes. Okay.”
He felt a little better, now that
she wasn’t so mad at him. But it just made him want to touch her even more.
He really needed to get out of
here.
“I already have an older brother,”
she said, still scrutinizing his face. “I don’t need another one.”
Damn it.
She thought he was acting like an
older brother.
She had no idea he felt like a
jealous boyfriend, resenting the fact that any other guy was thinking about
what was his.
Could things be any more of a mess
for him?

Seducing
Her Brother’s Best Friend
After
too many years being overlooked by men, Carol is ready to take action. She
wants a man, and she knows which man she wants. Her brother’s best friend,
Patrick Stevenson.
Patrick
is funny and brainy and the sexiest man she’s ever known, but he has never looked
at her as anything except his friend’s little sister. That’s going to change.
Carol
isn’t good at flirting. Or seduction. Or anything that requires putting herself
out there. But she’s going to make sure Patrick sees her as a desirable
woman—and one he wants for more than one night—even if it turns her whole world
upside down. He already likes her a lot. He just needs to open his eyes to how
good they’d be together.
After
all, how stubborn can he be?
