Now he needs a fake girlfriend and she’s the perfect woman for the job. Not to mention time together will give him a chance to win her over. A few months ago, Dash offered a shoulder for Cassidy Forrester to cry on. Somehow they wound up spending the night together. A night she thought meant something—until she woke up alone. She’s now serving as the band’s temporary personal assistant. But acting as Dash’s fake girlfriend is definitely not part of the job description. For the band’s sake, she agrees to play the role. But only a fool would make the same mistake twice, and Cassidy refuses to let their spark burn her a second time.

Who knew Cupid’s arrow could pack such a punch for the unlikeliest of couples.

Or, how it would make her the target of mockery from one rather grumpy former SEAL. Xander thinks he’s got her all figured out. She is determined to prove him wrong. Just because she’s more cheer than sneer doesn’t give him the right to pass judgment on her. As the son of a woman who walked away from her family, Xander Madden couldn’t be more disillusioned when it comes to love. Which makes Daisy’s ridiculously chipper ramblings about the wonders of love all the more irritating. Still, there’s something about her that he can’t ignore. Although…he probably should, considering every time he opens his mouth, he says the wrong thing. Just when Xander thinks he can avoid the trappings of her sunny disposition, Daisy sneaks past all his defenses and suddenly she’s all he can think about. The pair have nothing in common except an undeniable attraction. Is a future for them possible when Daisy’s looking for forever and Xander can’t even commit to tomorrow?
