Publisher Description
My best friend's sister is about to marry the wrong guy, and I'm the only one who sees it.
Lainey Morris deserves better than a man who doesn't appreciate everything she is. She's brilliant, stubborn, and so deep in her research books she doesn't see what's right in front of her. Someone needs to talk sense into her before she walks down the aisle in six months.
That someone is me.
When Lainey needs a place to stay in Cleveland for a four-month research project, I offer her my house. I'm on the road most of the time anyway, and it's the perfect opportunity to make my case. Show her she's rushing into something she'll regret. Convince her to slow down, focus on herself, and for the love of God, call off this wedding.
It's a solid plan. Logical. Foolproof.
Until I'm home more than expected, and suddenly we're sharing space. Sharing late-night conversations and inside jokes. She challenges me, frustrates me, and makes me laugh harder than anyone I know. And somewhere between trying to save her from a bad decision and actually getting to know her, everything shifts.
Because the problem isn't that she's marrying the wrong guy.
It's that she should be marrying me.
But I'm her brother's best friend. She's already wearing someone else's ring. And I have no idea how to tell her I've fallen in love with her without blowing up both our lives.
