The One That I Want

She's team no strings. He wants something more. Which one will get what they want? What do you do when your no-strings-attached, spicy fling stops being fun, and begins to turn serious?I learned early on not to trust emotional attachments. So when Connor Mack, the nice guy I'm hooking up with, asks me out on an actual date, cutting him loose is a no brainer. It's a flawless strategy--until we're asked to plan our best friends' engagement party. Together. Working-and playing-with Connor during a long, hot summer in New York City is more fun than I've had in forever, but scarier, too. Because each luscious kiss and every scene we negotiate cracks me open just a little bit more, making me feel way too vulnerable for comfort. Now my estranged parents have restarted their old, manipulative games, forcing me into a life-changing choice. Do I retreat and stay safe-or risk my heart going after Connor, the one that I want? ** The One That I Want is a funny, hot contemporary romance with 1) a sunny hero who insists on coordinating safe words, 2) a grumpy heroine whose emotional support animal is a stuffed camel, 3) chocolate chip cookie cravings, and 4) quite a variety of silk ties. **
