When Navy firefighter Nick Palotay returns to Marietta to
go on the bachelor auction block for a good cause, he
expects it to be risk free. But when he needs someone
safe to bid on him and his sister’s best friend is coaxed
into stepping up, Nick isn’t prepared for the effect
Cassidy has on him. She sends his mind to all kinds of
dirty places…places his battered heart can’t afford.
Freelance photographer Cassidy Ware is in waaay over her
head. She’s always been Nick’s other little sister, but
she’s all grown up now and just a glance from him leaves
her hot and bothered. Still, she can stay immune to his
charms and keep him at an emotional distance because
she’s got an agenda, too. She’ll help the too-handsome
Nick with his charitable deed, and, in return, he’ll help
her keep an unwelcome suitor at bay.
A deal’s a deal, but when their “business transaction”
turns into more pleasure than duty, can they walk away
from each other without losing what matters most?
