A sexy bus driver and single father makes a woman question what she really wants in a man in this steamy contemporary romance series debut.
Meet the Carter brothers, five hard-working men with a lot to offer. They may not be wealthy but they're rich in integrity and loyalty—not to mention sex appeal. They just need the right women to share their world . . .
At thirty, eldest brother Byron hasn't dated seriously in a while—not since he became a single dad to his beloved baby girl. Besides, he's found that most women can't see past his job as a bus driver, and he's not interested in that type of superficial foolishness. When he meets Cynthia Hall, her disinterest is obvious. Still, there's something about her . . .
Cynthia has been successful in her career and unlucky in love. But those two worlds collide when Byron ends up in her office on business. It's a coincidence that casts him in a very different light than she's previously seen. Too bad he's not the upscale professional Cynthia had in mind. Yet given the chance, she might discover that while money can't buy happiness—a loving and passionate man can . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Byron Carter is a bus driver with a loud, rowdy family and blue-collar roots, seemingly a mismatch for the elegant, high-status Cynthia Hall. She is counseling his niece, Leah, a troubled youth one misstep from prison time. Byron and Cynthia share a common attraction but little else, and Cynthia is as repelled by his brashness as he is by her apparent snobbiness. The development of their relationship is predictably tempestuous with the expected factors baby-mama drama, class conflicts, and her devotion to her work throwing up roadblocks. Without a spectacular plot to shore it up, this tale is a tired romance clich , additionally hampered by poor characterization and stiff, stilted dialogue. This new release from Day (Secret Silver Nights) is unfortunately one to miss.
