She's supposed to write his story. He's supposed to make it easy. Valentine's media company assigns her to write an in-depth feature on Carter's multinational empire - not a simple interview, but a long-term investigative piece meant to humanize (or expose) one of London's most controversial young CEOs. Carter doesn't want her there. He suspects the article won't just be a glowing profile - especially given his reputation for ruthless decision-making and recent whispers of questionable business tactics. But refusing the press would damage his image. So he agrees. Reluctantly. What begins as a professional assignment might turn into something neither of them expected-and nothing will ever be the same.

Hazel Collins seemingly has her life together. Great job, new apartment, great life, though she may disagree. The bane of her existence, the worst thing ever, her own personal hell is located about seven feet from where she works. The Worst, Little Devil, and That Bitch are a severely condensed list of her names of this "personal hell". Most just call him Jake. Seems she fancies the nickname route. Hazel loves her job and would do anything to help it grow. Even traveling to beautiful, yet painfully boring, South Dakota. With nothing to do, and nowhere to go until the meeting that would change her fate, is it worth remaining in close quarters with the man of her nightmares? She thinks so. (New chapter every Tuesday)

Claire Reynolds had a plan-focus on her career, avoid unnecessary responsibilities, and absolutely not become a parent. But when her best friend Megan ditches the country for a spontaneous Bali getaway with her yoga instructor boyfriend, Claire finds herself the temporary (probably?) guardian of baby Sophie. Determined to keep her life from spiraling into total chaos, Claire enlists the help of her annoyingly handsome (and infuriatingly competent) neighbor, Jake-who, as it turns out, is a pediatric nurse and way too smug about it. Jake offers to help her navigate the wild world of baby wipes, nap schedules, and the horror of assembling a stroller... in exchange for Claire owing him big time. As Claire stumbles through late-night feedings and surprise diaper explosions, she starts to realize two things: 1) Jake might be the most frustratingly perfect guy she's ever met, and 2) maybe, just maybe, she's not as bad at this whole "baby thing" as she thought. Between sleepless nights, unexpected feelings, and one very persistent baby who seems determined to bring them together, Claire has to figure out if she's ready for a new kind of plan-one that might just include love, family, and a whole lot of baby spit-up.
