Overview

I had her on the brain, and it was starting to become a problem. A big damn problem...I'm not a player, just a busy doctor with certain... needs.And being part of our small town charity event has made me an even hotter commodity.Which, as a red-blooded male, I appreciate.Too bad alluring single mom Maxine thinks I'm just another pretty face.But live for a good challenge. And I'm determined to prove her wrong.Between meddling match makers, secret dates and stolen kisses, I found myself falling for her.Until one mistake puts it all at risk.Now it's up to me to show Maxine that I'm not like the men in her past.I'm her present. And her future.I like my relationships like I like eggplant, which is to say, not at all.After kicking my cheating ex to the curb, I vowed to focus on my daughter and my businessAnd things were going great.Until a blue-eyed ER doctor decided I was his next conquest.Dr. Derek Cahill was irresistible, with thick black hair and piercing blue eyes.And he kissed like he'd been taught by Aphrodite herself.After the first caress, I knew I was in trouble.I tried to resist him the second time. Truly, I did!But by the third kiss, I was a goner.So much for best laid plans.
