I’m screwed. Drew Hayes just showed up on my doorstep. My brother’s best friend. The love of my life. My ex. Five years ago, he gave me his heart—then broke mine. I’m married now, though it’s more a prison than a partnership. But when I tell Drew to leave, he does the opposite.

Perfection is my armor—that’s how I keep everyone happy. Straight A’s. No distractions. Med school, residency, the surgical dream. Then one day in the OR, the weight of it all comes crashing down. Every breath becomes a battle. So I leave the scrubs, the shame, and the panic behind for my brother-in-law’s empty cottage. Only, I’m not alone. Matthew Carruthers is here. Pro football player. A six-foot-three slice of fun-loving temptation I have no business wanting. But one smile, one touch, and I start to wonder what it would feel like to stop being perfect—and just be.

CEO—and eligible bachelor—Zachary Rothwell wears success like a well-tailored suit. He’s all cool, controlled confidence. And he’s my last hope for dealing with my creepy landlord problem. Luckily for me, Zach’s trust fund isn’t his for the taking: he needs to be in a relationship first.

My ex-boss stole my million-dollar concept—and then fired me. So I go back, grab what’s mine, and make an escape. With security guards on my heels, I dive headfirst into Walker Drummond’s limo. Literally. Billionaire. Single father. The kind of man whose attention feels dangerous in all the right ways. When I confess, he doesn’t throw me out. Instead he makes me an offer: be his date, and he’ll consider my pitch.

Twenty-five hundred miles in a car. All I want is a respectful driver who'll be quiet and let me lick my wounds. Instead, a disarming flirt takes the wheel and propels my life into a tailspin. My father was supposed to be my road trip companion but abandoned me for his work. Once again. It should no longer hurt, but it does. To add insult to injury, with his shorts and flip-flops, mussed hair, and a blindingly perfect smile, my driver is... Annoyingly hot and far too friendly.
