Lucky in Love

Once upon a time…I fell for my brother's best friend. I'm not proud of myself, okay? But these things happen when you're young and impressionable. The point is, I got over it. I moved on. Except now Felix Caine is back-back with his easy smile and sparkling eyes, and he's making me an offer I (literally) can't refuse. He needs help with a romantic article he's writing, and he won't take no for an answer. The more time I spend with him, the more I remember all the reasons I fell for him before. But he's not just my brother's flirtatious friend this time. He's my friend, too. And though he says he'll never fall in love, I sometimes see his gaze linger with more than just friendship. There's a spark between us that wasn't there before. And I don't want to have any regrets in this relationship. But what's a girl to do when the only way to follow her heart…is to give it away?

My love for Luca Slater is not unrequited. It's just…not requited yet. Did I break into his house? Technically yes. And did I eavesdrop on that one tiny little conversation? Also yes. But I had good reasons! Unfortunately, Luca does not agree. So while I fell for him at first sight, his opinion of me is dismally low, and it's about to get lower. Because as of today, I am officially working at his office…as the new janitor. Cleaning toilets isn't sexy, and I am not cut out for sanitizer and scrub brushes. But I need this job--begged for this job, in fact--so I'm going to make the best of it. When I see Luca is having some work problems of his own, however, and when I realize I might be just the person to help, I offer my services immediately. As the new branch manager, he needs help softening his image in order to win over his employees, and if there's one thing I'm great at, it's people skills. If I can prove useful, maybe Luca will finally see me as a woman instead of a silly little girl. Maybe he'll finally realize I'm the one he's destined to be with forever. So I'll help Luca win over his employees, and while I'm at it, I'll win him over, too. I'm going to do everything I can to make this man fall for me… One mopped floor at a time.
