Book Cover & Preview Text
After filling the glass, she placed it in the microwave for a few seconds. She then turned to go for the cookies and walked right into a solid mass. She was so startled that she was unsteady, but Keith quickly steadied her, looking straight into her eyes. "What are you doing down here?" His eyes held all the love one could imagine, but his tone was cold… Sherry looked down at the floor, and then tried to walk away, in order to avoid another confrontation and to get away from the undeniable heat she felt from being too close to him while he wore nothing but fitted boxer shorts. If he could have kept his mouth shut, it would have been a perfect scene with his muscles glistening in the dim light, and love simmering in his eyes.

About the Book
After dating several good-looking men with serious deficiencies, Sherry Johnson, the Executive Director of a transitional housing program, vows to leave the pretty-boys alone. That is until she encounters generous, kind hearted Keith Blair, whose family owns a chain of sporting goods stores. Keith admittedly has no interest in serious, long-term relationships and only wants a long-term fling with Sherry who rejects his advances. However, after several futile attempts to resist each other, the couple marries. Initially, they seem blissfully in love with a fairytale life until Keith's deficiencies are revealed and they separate, leaving stubborn and proud Sherry almost as helpless as the people she serves.
Upon discovering Sherry's pregnancy, Keith threatens to fight her for custody unless she moves back in with him until she gives birth; all the while insisting that it was for the sake of his child. Can this pretty-boy overcome his issues in time to salvage his family? Or should Sherry opt for the ordinary fellows?
