Connor is the last guy in the world I should fall for.
Heās the resident office flirt. Iām the quirky Pride & PrejudiceĀāloving editor who uses big words and dresses like the worldās non-sexiest librarian. We have nothing in common. Plus, weāre competitors for the same job.
Fine by me. Iām happy to hold him at armsā length forever. And considering Iām practically the only woman in the office heās never flirted with, heās obviously happy to do the same.
But then, everything changes.
Because when weāre stuck overnight in our office building thanks to an earthquake-induced landslide, I begin to realize that Connor isnāt actually the jerk I thought he wasāthe kind who leads women on, just like my ex.
And when he offers to attend my exās wedding as my fake boyfriend, things get even more interesting. Especially when he gives me that much-too-chaste kiss ā¦
Ā
But I canāt fall for him.
That would be repeating the same mistake, just with a different guy. Tell that to my dumb heart, thoughāthe one that seems to think Connor Bryant is my Mr. Darcy.

Kristin is a wife and boy mom who functions best on peach tea and cookie dough ice cream.
