From a duo of USA Today Bestselling authors comes another sexy second chance romantic comedy STANDALONE. People like to see the womanizing jerk fall...the one who takes the number, but never calls? The guy who beds and never weds? Everyone wants to see that guy fall in love, right? Pfft. Sounds like a script straight out of one of the box office movies my clients make. Get your head out of the clouds because in real life the arrogant player doesn't fall head over heels for the feisty brunette. Unless the feisty brunette met him years before he'd perfected his cool demeanor. Unless she carved a spot out of his heart that never fully healed. Our first meeting kick started my heart. Fourteen years later, our reunion was less heart and more kick. Turns out Quinn is just as hot and bothered to see me as I am her and I have the head injury to prove it. Views: 591
