Willa Frank has one simple rule: never go on a date with anyone more than twice. Now that her business is providing the stability sheās always needed, she canāt afford distractions. Her two-date rule protects her just fineā¦until she meets smokejumper Grady Billman. After one dateāone amazing, unforgettable dateāGrady isnāt ready to call it quits, despite his own no-attachments policy, and heās found a sneaky way around both their rules. Throwing gutter balls with pitchers of beer? Not a real date. Everyone knows bowling doesnāt count. Watching a band play at a local show? They just happen to have the same great taste in music. Definitely not a date. Hiking? Nope. How can exercise be considered a date? With every "non-date" Grady suggests, his reasoning gets more ridiculous, and Willa must admit sheās having fun playing along. But when their time together costs Willa two critical clients, it's clear she needs to focus on the only thing that mattersāher future. And really, he should do the same. But what is she supposed to do with a future that looks gray without Grady in it?
