"Scout Steele is the country music star People magazine just voted 'sexiest bachelor'. More than that, he's my best friend forever, my bff.  OK, not quite my lingo - I'm almost thirty.  We've shared everything, and then some.  Even crossed the line a few times, but not too far.  Well, mostly....  He'll go to the end of the world to make me happy; he knows me inside and out.  Except, that is, my most intimate and darkest defect; this he must never know.  It would ruin us, and 'us' is the only thing that matters.  So I'm marrying someone who doesn't care about the truth or, frankly, even me."

"She's twisted and sexy as all get out. Brilliant and beautiful, Tess Harlow is my best friend and my forbidden fruit - the woman I've always known and loved the best but can never have. Between my tours (and sexy groupies) and her man-juggling, we've never found 'our time'.  I love her to pieces but she's about to marry the bane of my existence, rocker Creed Luce.  He's a walking cliché and he treats my Tess like hell - why she stays with him I still haven't figured out.  I am always there for her...but not this time. Tess deserves better, way better, my better.  The door is half-open and I have my ways.  Her best friend is about to become her best lover."

MATURE CONTENT Enter at your own risk.... "I'm not expecting declarations of love, nor anything much, really. Hell, I don't even know if I want a relationship. But I can't deny that I want you. Really bad." I admitted it for the first time aloud. "I think it's pretty out there that we want each other, don't you?" A teasing grin played about his lips. "So what do you suppose we do about that?" I eyed his lips and sucked in my own. "Well, you're the first girl that I don't see as a one-time thing so it's not like we do it once and I can just let you go." He said. "Maybe you won't have to." I proposed. "We're both obviously not into a relationship right now, and that's why I think it would be best to keep it physical in that sense and we wouldn't damage our friendship because there was never a relationship to squash it." ******************************************************* With the inability to trust the male population, Sofia Vincenti goes into college with the thought that she would be strictly focusing on school...for a little bit anyway. Setting up her cousin/roommate, Kristina Vincenti, with Isaac Mulvaney turned out to be a little more complicated since she can't seem to get his best friend, Nathan Stone, out of her mind. He's sexy, he's sweet -- only to her --, he also just wants to be her friend. Until they realize they want each other, and begin the unhealthy relationship of a friends with benefits. The real question is: can Sofia really keep her heart out of it, or has she fallen too deep?
