May Fredericks hates New York. Which is fair enough, since New York seems to hate her back. Just weeks after moving from Wisconsin to Manhattan, she receives the world's worst marriage proposal, stabs her boyfriend with a shrimp fork in a very public venue, and accidentally becomes notorious. And that’s before she gets mugged. At her wit's end, May washes up at a Packers bar in Greenwich Village, where she meets a surly, unhelpful guy who hates her shoes and calls her ex a douche. His name is Ben. He used to be a chef. Now he's a rooftop beekeeper with anger management issues. She wouldn't even like him, but he reminds her of home … and he knows where to find all the best food in the Village. She makes him laugh. He buys her tacos and cowboy boots. The longer they’re stuck together, the better May and Ben get along … and the harder they fall.

I stepped towards him, the Mate that was to be mine for all eternity. But before I could leap into his arms, he put his hands up, as if to tell me not to do what was an instinct. I held myself back, it confused me that he wasn't standing in front of me with open arms, and he was closed off. Before I could truly grasp what was happening, he said in a low sexy voice that travelled through my body sending tiny shock waves throughout, "I don't want you."

MATURE PEOPLE WANT TO READ MATURE BOOKS WITH CORRECT CONVENTIONS: SPELLING AND GRAMMAR. If you want to publish, please take the spelling and grammar seriously. No one wants to buy a book filled with mistakes. I have requested refunds because if I am spending my money to purchase something I am hoping to enjoy, I prefer for it to be as perfect as possible. With that said.... I decided to start adding spelling and grammar tips along the way. I've been thinking about this for a bit and I know how time consuming it is to upload daily so I will try to add tips as I come across errors while reading stories on Wattpad. I am pretty sure there will be errors I miss and some that I won't even comment on so don't bite my head off. I am by no means a grammar or spelling expert so I am prepared for the criticisms. P.S. Please don't take offense to what I add. Disclaimer: I am by no means a grammar and/or spelling expert.
