About this ebook

"5 SWEET BEAUTIFUL STARS!"

Nate Waterson, Married in Malibu’s tech expert, is Tamara Truscott’s best customer at Malibu T and Coffee. Nate claims he needs lots of coffee to keep him sharp and full of energy, but his friends and co-workers at the boutique wedding venue know that buying countless cups of coffee is his perfect excuse to see Tamara as often as possible. 

Though Nate is usually glued to his computer and Tamara is happiest at the beach, they’re surprised to find that they have a great deal in common too –– they both agree that relationships are nothing but trouble. But despite vowing to remain friends, and nothing more, it’s as if Cupid is following them with his bow and arrow everywhere they go. When the heat between them can no longer be denied while dancing together at a wedding, they share a sizzling kiss. Will that one special kiss lead the computer geek and the sunny beach girl to a deeper love than either of them ever thought was possible?
