USA Today bestselling author Talia
Hibbert returns with another charming romantic comedy about a young woman who
agrees to fake date her friend after a video of him "rescuing" her from their
office building goes viral...
Danika Brown knows what she wants: professional
success, academic renown, and an occasional roll in the hay to relieve all that
career-driven tension. But romance? Been there, done that, burned the T-shirt.
Romantic partners, whatever their gender, are a distraction at best and a drain
at worst. So Dani asks the universe for the perfect
friend-with-benefits--someone who knows the score and knows their way
around the bedroom.
When big, brooding security guard Zafir Ansari rescues
Dani from a workplace fire drill gone wrong, it's an obvious sign: PhD student
Dani and former rugby player Zaf are destined to sleep together. But before she can
explain that fact to him, a video of the heroic rescue goes viral. Suddenly, half the
internet is shipping #DrRugbae--and Zaf is begging Dani to play along. Turns
out his sports charity for kids could really use the publicity. Lying to help children?
Who on earth would refuse?
Dani's plan is simple: fake a relationship in
public, seduce Zaf behind the scenes. The trouble is, grumpy Zaf is secretly a
hopeless romantic--and he's determined to corrupt Dani's stone-cold realism.
Before long, he's tackling her fears into the dirt. But the former sports star
has issues of his own, and the walls around his heart are as thick as his...
um, thighs.
The easy lay Dani dreamed of is now more
complex than her thesis. Has her wish backfired? Is her focus being tested? Or
is the universe just waiting for her to take a hint?

Customer Reviews

Dani and Zaf are just too cute for words

02/2021 Ok im so glad I decided to re read this story! 8t was just absolutely adorable and I cant believe I thought it was annoying the first go round! Dani is a hilarious character and her view on what she wants is awesome. I loved that the author gave us a woman who didn't want to just settle and put her career on hold. And Zaf is like the sweetest man ever. So incredibly patient!! And such a gentleman too! You hardly ever see that in books. This author has a way of creating characters that are complex and opposites of what today's societies expect.

Satisfying, Character-Driven Story

The characters were well-written and a bit off-beat, which I appreciated. It was a fun read and a good addition to the series.
