Publisher Description
Don't trust lust at first sight. A "bubbly and sizzling rom-com" with a light love triangle and an absolutely swoon-worthy hero.
Every morning, a gorgeous mystery man jogs by Jacqueline Butler's office window, tempting her to break her "no dating" rule. She's good with ogling him from afar, but her best friend-slash-colleague Vince Carson suggests she do more than stare—he wants her to ask the runner out.
Vince knows his best friend Jackie better than she knows herself, and the last thing she needs is a date with a pompous, swole jackass. But after being friend-zoned big-time, Vince can't exactly ask her out himself. Encouraging her to pursue a guy who is all muscle and no substance will not only get Jackie off the bench, but will also open her eyes to the fact that Vince is the right man for her.
Vince takes Jackie on practice dates, promising to help her hone her skills, but can't resist edging the fake romance into reality. After a ridiculously epic kiss, Jackie sees a sexier side of Vince, and suddenly anything is possible…
"Truly the perfect romantic comedy—the banter made me grin, the sexual tension had me breathless, and the perfect happy ending left me smiling long after the book was done."—New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne
Customer Reviews
Entertaining!
Love Jessica Lemmon's humor! Such fun! Eye Candy is great, and I love that the characters feel like real people. They aren't perfect and they make mistakes. This is a friends to lovers story, and I really liked both Vince and Jackie. I do think Vince was too hard on Jackie sometimes, and he makes things more complicated for Jackie and his relationship, but he's still a cutie. Jackie is wonderful, she's a strong, intelligent woman, who doesn't mind showing who she really is. Jackie and Vince both have some previous baggage that makes it hard for them to trust in love, so this affects how their relationship progresses. Vince and Jackie have some really cute chemistry together, and I like the friends to lovers scenario. They also have some hot sexy times! I love the added humor throughout the story! Makes me smile! Overall, an entertaining, fun read!
