Book Blurb:
When opposites are fake dating, will they be able to avoid falling in love?
Eccentric hippie and wedding dress shop owner Onyx plans to be an awesome maid of honor for her best friend’s wedding. She already helped the bride pick the perfect wedding dress from her shop. But she's not happy about having to spend so much time with the best man, Taylor. He’s her complete opposite, and being around him is like nails on a chalkboard for her. But the last thing she expects is for him to kiss her impulsively at a party before the wedding. And the main problem is, she wants him to kiss her again now!
Straight-laced surgeon Taylor has never been seen with a girl, and he’s tired of being teased about it by the other groomsmen. So he makes a bet that he can get the beautiful maid of honor to date him before the wedding is over. The problem is, she can’t stand him. So he promises he’ll give up his booth in the Maple Creek Fall Festival to her mom’s crystal shop if she’ll pretend to date him, an offer he knows she can’t pass up.
The longer Onyx is around Taylor the more she feels drawn to him, despite being his polar opposite. Can she continue the façade of dating him when her heart gets involved?
If you enjoy sweet romantic comedy set in a small town when opposites attract in a fake romance, then you’ll love this book!
Excerpt:
Time stood still. She ran a hand through her hair, and it seemed to move in slow motion. She looked up at him, their eyes locking, and her lips parted, almost like she was giving him an invitation. And he did what any red-blooded male would do in such a moment with such a gorgeous woman in front of him would do. He bent down and kissed her.
She should have slapped him, pushed him away, screamed in horror. But she didn’t. Instead, she kissed him back. Did that mean she wanted him to kiss her? That he’d gotten away with randomly kissing the most beautiful woman in the room?
These kinds of things never happened to him. He was the studious guy who always made straight A’s in school and paid his taxes on time. He’d never tried to do something so scandalous. It was completely out of character for him. Maybe that was the point. He was tired of being the boring, predictable guy in Maple Creek. This was the most rash, spontaneous thing he’d ever done, and it felt exhilarating.
