Ben said he loved me, lusted after me, and wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. From the very beginning I was honest with him about my complicated life. He promised me the only thing that mattered was our love. I thought the future was set until...
'Evie, I can't do us anymore.'
The day Ben walked away was the day my love life went on permanent hiatus. Men were a distraction that I didn't want or need until...
Tall, dark, and handsome ex-pro-football player, Butler Thompson, entered the picture and interrupted my heart.
Sophie
I'm an intelligent and independent woman with a fantastic career. My personal life is perfect. No attachments or commitments. I know firsthand there is no such thing as "happily ever after" and I'm okay with that. I love everything about men-their broad shoulders, bulging biceps, and chiseled jawlines. I love when they come and especially when they go. I'm living my best life.
At least I thought I was until the day a six foot, green eyed buffoon who wouldn't take no for an answer knocked on my door needing a place to stay. Doug Truman is an unwanted entity that I'm forced to endure. But as hard as I try to tolerate his antics, he still drives me crazy in more ways than one.
Doug
What woman wouldn't want me? Sophie Cipriano that's who. I don't get it. I'm hot, funny, and can charm the clothes off anyone. Tons of naked chicks have said so. I would gladly supply names and numbers if I could remember any of them. I'm not a jerk. I'm just forgetful. Except when it comes to Sophie. Sure her lips call me every horrible name in the book, but her eyes light up with fire whenever we're near each other. Sophie's utter loathing of me only makes her more desirable. All I need is one night to get her out of my system.
When we became roommates I knew she wouldn't be able to resist me for long. But little did I know I wouldn't be able to resist falling in love.
