Publisher Description
From bestselling author Kristin Canary comes a series filled with laughs, friendship goals, and the swooniest book boyfriends imaginable …
Connor is the last guy in the world I should fall for.
He's the resident office flirt. I'm the quirky Pride & Prejudice–loving editor who uses big words and dresses like the world's non-sexiest librarian. We have nothing in common. Plus, we're competitors for the same job.
Fine by me. I'm happy to hold him at arms' length forever. And considering I'm practically the only woman in the office he's never flirted with, he's obviously happy to do the same.
But then, everything changes.
Because when we're stuck overnight in our office building thanks to an earthquake-induced landslide, I begin to realize that Connor isn't actually the jerk I thought he was—the kind who leads women on, just like my ex.
And when he offers to attend my ex's wedding as my fake boyfriend, things get even more interesting. Especially when he gives me that much-too-chaste kiss …
But I can't fall for him.
That would be repeating the same mistake, just with a different guy. Tell that to my dumb heart, though—the one that seems to think Connor Bryant is my Mr. Darcy.
Perfect for fans of:
✔️flirtatious banter
✔️office romances between competitors
✔️fake relationships

✔️charming "bad boys" who are secret cinnamon rolls

Love this author!
Kristin is a great author. I always enjoy her writing. She never fails to write an engaging plot, great characters and real life problems.
This was a cute, funny story. There were some kisses but this is a sweet clean romance.
Thank you to the author for allowing me to read this book. The opinions are entirely my own.
I loved this book!
This book gave me all the feels. Yes, I was crying happy tears at the gym on the treadmill. But it was absolutely worth all the awkward stares.
Evie and a Connor both work for the same firm. Connor is in marketing and Evie is an editor. They are both up for the same promotion.
This should cause a lot of tension between the two of them, but after surviving an earthquake together they begin building a special bond.
Evie needs this promotion to help her parents back in Iowa and Connor is trying to make his dad proud of him.
Will they be able to put their family problems and promotion to the side and see what develops of their relationship?
This book was laugh out loud funny! The main character has such a fun voice as she tells the story from her perspective.
Kristin Canary has an amazing ability to create relatable characters. Bonus points for Connor cooking on the first date. I always tell my husband I fell in love when I took that first bite on our first date.
If you haven’t read a Kristin Canary book this is a great one to start with.
