MACY

I never planned to fall head over heels for a man twice my age. I never set my sights on my father's right-hand man and confidante. But I know my own mind, and my heart won't settle for anyone but Hunter King.
My best friends think it's a phase. It's not. Phases don't last seven years.
My mother thinks I'll get over it when he turns me down. She doesn't know Hunter wants me as much as I want him. If only he'd stop pushing me away and let me love him.
It's my mission. I was born to love that man. All of him. And one day soon, every single inch of his righteous dad bod will belong to me.
He got away once. I won't let it happen again.

HUNTER
You don't chase your best friend's daughter. You don't ogle, flirt, fantasize, and plan to pillage her luscious curves for the next forty years when her father trusts you to keep his one and only princess safe.
No, you don't. But I did.
I want Macy Ramos more than I want food, water, or air. But she's out of my league and beyond my reach. She deserves to frolic with men her own age who have the time and energy to love her the way she needs to be loved.
For more than a year, I've kept her at arm's length, but with every passing day, my strength weakens, and my resolve withers. When she shows up at my office looking for a job, looking for me, I fold like a cheap suit.

I can find another best friend. I'll never find another Macy.
