She was jilted on her wedding day. He’s the best friend waiting in the wings.

Lexie Gallagher is starting to think she’s better off alone. Her family fell apart years ago. Her relationships all end in disaster. Is she the common denominator who causes everyone to leave? Everyone but her best friend, Gabe, who whisks her away from the scene of the latest breakup.

As the human resources VP for North Brothers Sports, Gabe North understands people and how to meet their needs. What Lexie’s always needed is a true-blue friend, doubly so when she’s left at the altar. Of course he’ll be her shoulder to cry on—even though he’s wanted to be more than friends for years.

As Lexie heals from her recent rejection, Gabe is everything she needs…and then he becomes even more. But when life gets tricky, can Lexie believe that true blue is forever, or will she find herself eternally alone?
