The Good Stuff (Unexpected Love)

When she needs a fake date, he’ll break every rule to make the romance real...

Stella Grayson, freshly minted culinary school graduate, is ready to launch into adulthood and cook up some life experience. Moving from her childhood home to Seattle is a huge first step. But her lie about having a boyfriend is about to bite her when her sister invites Stella to bring the non-existent man to her wedding. Thank goodness for friends who hook her up with the perfect solution: a man who’s handsome, charming, sexy, and completely unavailable. Eli Martin lives by the rules he made for himself, particularly when it comes to women. Without them, he’d be tempted to blow right past decency. The rules are for everybody’s protection; he’s not going to be like his dad, disappointing people and abandoning them. Despite Eli’s advanced flirting skills and penchant for casual flings, he does have a heart of gold and roots for the underdog. And right now, that’s Stella. She’s inexperienced, but not clueless. Brave but not stupid. And she’s tempting Eli first to bend, and then break every rule he’s made for himself. But when their fake date leads to real kisses, will breaking the rules lead to broken hearts, or will pushing their limits lead to a lifetime of love?
