Everything's going her way… until it all falls apart.

Delainey Hodges has a great new job… except that her new boss at the bank seems to think her duties include seducing the customers. She has a great new house… except for the flaws the previous owner covered up. She has great new neighbors… except for Sam, the annoying handyman next door.

Sam Wagner seems to think it's his job to rescue her – whether it's from an outlet that doesn't work, a chimney that smokes, or a client who won't take a hint. She's happy to have the outlet working and the fire burning better, but Sam seems to have missed the memo that when it comes to pushy customers, Delainey can take care of herself just fine.

When he steps in – again! – Delainey gets even by claiming he's her overprotective fiancé. To her surprise, instead of backing off, Sam's perfectly willing to play along.

But now the fat's in the fire. If her boss finds out she's lied, Delainey will lose her job. And her house. And her promising future.

And Sam.

Not that she wants him… except that playing house with Sam is an awfully lot of fun. If only he didn't seem to have his own agenda.
