Knocking Boots by Willow Winters & Vivian Wood
It started as a bet; now I don’t want to stop.
I was engaged once, and I learned my lesson. That’ll never happen again. Women come and go, but my bar is all I give a damn about. F*ck commitment. All I need is one night. It’s just for fun, and then it’s over.
Until she walked into my bar. My sweetheart.
Gorgeous from head to toe, she’s a woman who knows exactly what she wants. The whole nine yards, complete with a picket fence… not a southern bartender with commitment issues.
Maybe it was the challenge that drew me to her… maybe it was something else.
It was harmless flirting at first. Then it turned into a drunken deal.
She’s supposed to play my girlfriend until my sister’s wedding, just to get my family off my back.
Every day we get closer to the wedding, it’s harder and harder to deny what I’m feeling.
But she never wanted me to begin with. It was just a stupid bet.
She never told me what she wanted in return. I know what she’s desperate for though, a baby. A family to call her own.
I’m not ready to settle down, but damn I want to hold on to her for just a little longer.
But I can’t let just a little longer turn into forever.
**Knocking Boots is a full-length standalone romance with an HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.
Really cute story!! I loved reading this
Grace wants a family - and she's getting to the point where if she doesn't have a baby soon, she may never be able to have one - Sure she can always use IVF - but that takes money - and LOTS of money. She has a good job, but it's not THAT good
Grace also believes in love and hope - she doesn't do one night stands because her heart doesn't let her.
Charlie is a good guy - he's loved and been hurt and refuses to let it happen again. But he's close with his family and they all want him to be happy.
So when the persistent nagging for him to be set up on a date by his ma for his sister's wedding gets to be too much, Grace decides to help out a friend and let them think he's not alone.
Only his family is a lot more involved than she realized. What turned into harmless fun to get his family off his back for a little bit turned into a 2 week wild ride, Grace knew her heart would be shattered by this man.
Again, really cute story - fast read :)
