All of Me - Paperback

My new neighbor walked into my life with a misdirected package. She left with the worst first impression of all time.

The first time I met the shy, beautiful woman across the hall, I practically growled at her. She couldn't get away from me fast enough.

Lucky for me, she doesn't hold a grudge. Soon we're sharing laughs in the hallway. Underneath that shy exterior, Mia is funny and smart...and far too sweet for a former boxing pro like me.

It's for the best, though. I'm not looking for a relationship. Not when the last woman I trusted stabbed me in the back.

Then that same ex announces she's coming back to town. And this time, she's on the arm of my former rival, the one other person I'd have been happy to never cross paths with again.

I'll have to see them, interact with them. It's unavoidable. But they know every one of my buttons to push and harsh words can lead to rash decisions and actions. With a major event coming up and sponsorships on the line for the youth program at the gym I co-own I can't take the hit to my reputation that a confrontation could cause. It's too big of a risk.

As crazy as it sounds - and it does - I can't shake the idea that Mia might be the one person who can help me. There's something about her that draws me in and smoothes my jagged edges in a way no other woman ever has. So, I ask her to fake it for me - to stand by my side as my "girlfriend" as I face down the two people who once tried to tear down my world.

A few weeks, maybe a month, and we'll be back to being friendly neighbors. Only what happens when she realizes I was never faking it to begin with?
