Practice Makes Mr. Perfect

by Pat White

Police Detective Brett Callahan is determined to marry his dream woman, refined socialite Simone Trifarra, but he hasn’t a clue how to seal the deal. So he convinces his neighbor Josie Matthews, aka his pizza buddy, to tutor him in the fine art of romance.

Josie sees no harm in helping the hunky Brett on the art of courtship. A young widow, she lost her one true love and won’t risk her heart again. Besides, she has no interest in a man whose very career puts him in danger. But when a few “practice” dates stir feelings way beyond friendship, Josie questions her decision to help her clueless neighbor.

Thanks to his adorable tutor Brett grows closer to reaching his goal of snagging his dream woman. Yet something feels off and he wonders if the “perfect” woman has been right in front of him all along.
