Curvy, bodacious server Rosie thrives at Bangers Tavern, where her work family adores her weirdness and supports her tattoo artist dreams. When too much New Year’s bubbly tumbles her into a sweet, shy coworker’s bed, she wakes up craving more of his delicious touch. But guys like Eddie never stick with girls like her.
Strait-laced, bashful barback Eddie pines for his voluptuous coworker. Their New Year’s surprise is a dream come true—until his grandma walks in on them. Eddie begs Rosie for a few fake dates to appease his old-fashioned family. But their lies spin out of control, and the longer he pretends, the deeper he falls.
Rosie is everything Eddie’s ever wanted, but his rule-abiding soul clashes with her rebellious spirit, and a lovers’ spat at work nearly costs them both their jobs. To keep her, he’ll have to face his fears, drop a terrifying truth bomb, and win back her trust. She’s got a thousand reasons why they’ll never work. How can he convince her to risk her wounded heart?
Come back to Bangers Tavern for a steamy, laugh-out-loud, opposites attract romance that ignites in all the worst ways—and the best!
