Rachel needs a partner she can trust to raise a child with. Scott doesn’t trust a woman with kids on the brain.
At 36, Rachel’s achieved her career goals and is now focused on two things: adopting a child and finding a partner to raise that child with. Since love and marriage haven’t happened for her after all these years of dating, it’s time for a different approach.
People—ahem, Scott—may judge her for it, but she refuses to let that stop her from looking for a decent guy who’s ready to be a father. If only she could find a decent guy in the world of online dating.
Hooking up with a player like Scott is a complication she doesn’t have time for.
Except, she can’t seem to stay away from him and the steamy connection they have. And that damn dimple when he smiles.
Scott knows first-hand that a woman intent on having kids will do anything to achieve her goal. Even at the expense of a marriage.
Since his divorce, he’s been single. A serial dater with no interest in anything serious. Especially with a woman so focused on having children she only sees her partner as a means to an end.
Until he can’t stop thinking about the feisty attorney who challenges him in ways no other woman has. He’s turning on the charm, but Rachel seems to be immune.
Except that one hot night…and that other one…

A chance discovery of a handwritten love scene leads to friendship and undeniable chemistry for two people who’ve sworn off love. They might be perfect for each other…but they haven’t actually met.
Will they continue to play it safe or will they risk another heartbreak for a chance at love?
Best-selling author Jax Rowland is writing the first book of his next spy thriller series and it’s not going well. On his agent’s advice, he’s trying to create a deeper connection between his protagonist and a female character. If Jax fails, he faces more negative reviews from readers tired of his one-dimensional Bond girls.
Dr. Sophie Grimaldi is successful, single and content to remain that way. Disappointed, or worse, by romantic relationships all her life, she has no interest in men—aside from the delicious book boyfriends created by her favorite authors.
When Sophie finds a sheet of notes in a library book, curiosity soon turns to exasperation over the author’s poor attempt at a steamy sex scene. Automatically, she scribbles her own version, forgetting all about the page when she returns the book. She never imagines the author will find her revision.
Embarrassed to view his work through a mystery critic’s eyes, Jax recognizes her talent and tracks Sophie down, offering her a job writing the love scenes of his next novel.
As sexy emails and flirty texts turn into a friendship crackling with chemistry, it becomes more and more difficult for Sophie and Jax to deny their feelings. When they finally make plans to meet in person, a series of missed connections and unexpected twists make it clear that fate has other plans.
Will they heed the signs or choose to write their own destiny?
