One: She’ll have my baby.
Two: I’ll pay off her sister’s debts.

It should've been easy to follow the rules since they’re right there in black and white… but it isn’t.

“Promise you won’t fall in love with me.”

I’ve loved her since the moment I laid eyes on her. Convincing her to have my baby is only the beginning.

Now that I have her where I want her, beside me and beneath me every night, it should be easy to claim her as mine…but it’s not.

The pain that comes from loving someone terrifies her, and she’s adamant she won’t take that leap.

Proving to her I’m not like all the rest is going to be tough as hell, even more so when I discover all the insecurities she’s hiding under sarcasm and meaningless sex.

She made me promise not to fall in love, but she forgot to put it in the contract.

He's:
Cocky
Crude
Unapologetic

Clay's all dirty jokes and curse words, while I'm quiet and shy. I try to blend into the background, while he strives to be the center of everyone’s attention.

She's:
Uptight
Sheltered
Allergic to fun

I never expected to fall in love. Especially not with a girl I've known all my life. One who’s always been off-limits.

Opposites might attract, but in this case of explosive chemistry, someone's heart is bound to be shattered.

As enemies become friends and friends morph into more; Clay has definitely met his match.

Two things you should know about me:

One: I don't make mistakes
Two: I'm never going to settle down with one woman

I'm the fun brother, the jokester, the one who's never serious...at least, not until I lose the biggest influence in my life.

Now, I'm spiraling out of control, so much so I spent the night after his funeral drowning my sorrows. First, in the bottom of a bottle...then in the body of a blonde bombshell who looked at me like I could make all her carnal dreams come true.

Spoiler alert: I did.

I don't remember her name, or what she looked like, but now she's consuming my every thought. It doesn't help that my brother hired a brand new intern, one with a banging body and tousled blonde hair that makes me think of her, to be my assistant for the next six weeks.

I spend my days trying not to bend her over my desk and make her mine, and my nights dreaming about the girl who got away.

Everything changes when the secret my sexy intern has been hiding comes out...

I made a huge mistake.

The arrangement was simple, with only two rules:

Rule #1: Don't fall in love
Rule #2: Refer back to rule one when necessary

I thought I could stick to the rules, but with a girl like Fallon, I should've known those rules were meant to be broken. We've been best friends since we were kids, and she's the only woman I'd ever even consider for more than a one-night stand.

No matter how much I'm attracted to her, and I'm pretty f-ing attracted, I know she deserves more than a man who will never commit to one woman.

Then, my father gives me an ultimatum:

Have a baby...or he'll sell the business my great-grandfather started over fifty years ago to a stranger.

Winston Industries is mine, and I'm not about to let anyone take it away from me.

Too much alcohol has Fallon volunteering to help me with my problem, and our agreement is born.

There's just one little problem...everything changes the moment I slide inside her.

To hell with the rules... I'm going to claim what's mine before it's too late.

He’s the one person I shouldn’t want…

And the only person I can’t live without.

I’ve always made the right decisions, been the “good girl,” careful to never step over that line. But, when that line begins to blur, my path, my future, changes course.

It was supposed to be a secret - one no one would ever know.

There’s just one problem: How can true love be kept quiet?

It can’t.
It couldn’t.
It didn’t.

Now I have to face the consequences.

I tried to be the perfect daughter and fiancee, but after the people who are supposed to love me the most betrayed me, those days are done.

I’m ready for a fresh start - and this time a relationship won’t define who I am.

That means:

No men.
No complications.
No turning back.

At least, that was the plan before I met him.

He wants me…
And he’s not about to take no for an answer.

Quando o pai de Reed Winston exige que ele tenha um bebê para assumir o controle da empresa da família ou a venderia para um estranho, ele não vê outra alternativa a não ser encontrar uma mulher para ajudá-lo.

Fallon, a sua melhor amiga, se oferece para ajudar nesse projeto, e Reed decide aceitar... e dar vazão ao desejo que sente por ela.

O plano era simples e só havia duas regras:

Número um: não se apaixone
Número dois: consulte a regra um quando necessário

Só há um problema... ele não imaginava que seguir as regras seria tão difícil...
