Widowed Samantha Arias hasn’t spoken to Holly Dunfee in forever. It’s for the best. Samantha prefers to avoid conflict. The blisteringly honest Holly craves it. What they still have in common puts them both back on speed dial: a mutual love for Katie, their best friend of twenty-five years, now hospitalized with cancer and needing one little errand from her old college roomies. It’s simple: travel cross-country together, steal her loathsome ex-husband’s VW camper, find Katie’s diabetic Great Pyrenees at a Utah pound, and drive him back home to Wisconsin.

Lexi liebt es, die Buchhandlung ihrer Großmutter in Washington D.C. weiterzuführen, wäre da nicht der unverschämt arrogante und gut aussehende rivalisierende Buchladenbesitzer Sam. Als dessen neu eröffnete Buchhandlung Lexi immer tiefer in die roten Zahlen stürzen lässt, sieht sie sich gezwungen, einen Plan zu schmieden.

Ronnie Nelson likes to be chased. Jaxon Cook loves a challenge. Ronnie wants a man who pulls out all the stops. Jax doesn't stop until he gets what he wants. Seems like a match made in heaven. Until an unexpected development - of the "call me Professor Cook" variety - makes their attraction - and what they did last Saturday night - a lot more forbidden. Now, committing a work violation has become a forgone conclusion and the chase just became a lot more complicated.

Jamie Cook is a work-in-progress. He’s always wanted what his parents have: a good marriage, lots of kids, and financial security. He thought he’d have the first two with his ex-girlfriend while the third would come once he got his house-flipping business off the ground. When his ex doesn’t subscribe to his five-year plan, he makes Cook Brothers Construction his sole focus. Then he moves next door to April Williams, a sassy single mom he can’t stop riling up, and her matchmaking mother-in-law has set her sights on Jamie being April’s knight in a leather tool belt.

Having watched his brothers meet their match, Cohen Cook is feeling something he never anticipated - envy. With a demanding job, and helping his brothers with their biggest flip project yet, he doesn’t have time to sleep with, let alone date, anyone. Skye Rossi is a free spirit. She’s a take-her-as-you-see-her woman who works hard and plays hard, but the person she wants to play with friend-zoned her the minute they met. When sparks fly between Cohen and Skye, the only way forward is to propose a mutually beneficial arrangement that no one knows about.
