The One That I Want

She's team no strings. He wants something more. Which one will get what they want? What do you do when your no-strings-attached, spicy fling stops being fun, and begins to turn serious? I learned early on not to trust emotional attachments. So when Connor Mack, the nice guy I'm hooking up with, asks me out on an actual date, cutting him loose is a no brainer. It's a flawless strategy--until we're asked to plan our best friends' engagement party. Together. Working–and playing–with Connor during a long, hot summer in New York City is more fun than I've had in forever, but scarier, too. Because each luscious kiss and every scene we negotiate cracks me open just a little bit more, making me feel way too vulnerable for comfort. Now my estranged parents have restarted their old, manipulative games, forcing me into a life-changing choice. Do I retreat and stay safe–or risk my heart going after Connor, the one that I want? ** The One That I Want is a funny, hot contemporary romance with 1) a sunny hero who insists on coordinating safe words, 2) a grumpy heroine whose emotional support animal is a stuffed camel, 3) chocolate chip cookie cravings, and 4) quite a variety of silk ties. **
