What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
But what didn't happen in Vegas seems to follow them
everywhere.
Lola and Oliver like to congratulate themselves on having
the good sense to not consummate their drunken Las Vegas
wedding. If they'd doubled-down on that mistake, their Just
Friends situation might not be half as great as it is now.
. . . Or so goes the official line.
In reality, Lola's wanted Oliver since day one--and over
time has only fallen harder for his sexy Aussie accent and
easygoing ability to take her as she comes. More at home in
her studio than in baring herself to people, Lola's
instinctive comfort around Oliver nearly seems too good to
be true. So why ruin a good thing?
Even as geek girls fawn over him, Oliver can't get his mind
off what he didn't do with Lola when he had the chance. He
knows what he wants with her now . . . and it's far outside
the friend zone. When Lola's graphic novel starts getting
national acclaim--and is then fast-tracked for a major
motion picture--Oliver steps up to be there for her whenever
she needs him. After all, she's not the kind of girl who
likes all that attention, but maybe she's the kind who'll
eventually like him.
Sometimes seeing what's right in front of us takes a great
leap of faith. And sometimes a dark wild night in Vegas
isn't just the end of a day, but the beginning of a bright
new life . . .
