Publisher's Synopsis
All Mollie Martin wanted was her usual comfort meal with her best friend, Cora, when fate served her an unexpected helping of gorgeous-book cover model Evan Palmer, in desperate need of rescue from an overeager fan. One fake-girlfriend rescue and a shared lunch later, she discovers not only is the man behind those smoldering photoshoots sweeter than any dessert on the menu, but he can't take his eyes off her.
One look at her genuine smile, and Evan knows he found what he's been missing. When Mollie's manipulative ex triggers her anxiety, Evan's protective instincts flare with an intensity that surprises even him. He's determined to prove not every man will break her heart like her cheating ex did.
As their whirlwind romance deepens, with best friend Cora cheering from the sidelines, Mollie finds herself falling for both Evan's caring nature and his dominant side. But when both their toxic exes resurface, determined to reclaim what they lost, their newfound happiness hangs in the balance.
Sometimes the best relationships develop when you're not even looking for them. And sometimes, it only takes one moment to recognize your soulmate in a crowded diner.
