Conner thinks it’s all in good fun. Playful banter. He thinks all his flirting and sexual innuendos are harmless...And that’s exactly what I want him to think. He can never know how much each smirk or touch twists me up inside.
He’s been my best friend since we were kids. I could never jeopardize our friendship over some stupid childhood crush-even if that childhood crush has bloomed into something so much sexier as we’ve gotten older.
Regardless, I can’t do it. I need to maintain our friendship and my heart unbroken above all else. Conner Smoak has more notches in his bedpost than I care to count and I can’t bear the thought of ending up as one of them. Not after everything we’ve been through together.

Nadine is a sloppy romantic at heart. She loves to curl up on her front porch swing in the mornings with her extra large cup of coffee and lose herself in a blissfully, butterfly-filled, pure romance story. However, her guilty pleasures are found within the pages of the steamy romances with sexy alpha’s that ignite temptation, desire, and lust.
As much as she enjoys reading romances, she enjoys writing them even more. She thrives on the opportunity to give her readers the chance to escape into the chiseled arms of their latest book boyfriend and leave them fantasizing days later.
She has been punching keys for years and now that she has built up a collection of heartthrobs, she is ready to finally share them with the world.
Part two in the Where There’s Smoak series begins where part one left off. Conner didn’t get the promotion that he expected. A new, to the firehouse, guy got the job and Conner is not happy! He’s also jealous because Brooke is interested in the new guy, Ian. This is a very short, fast read with a cliffhanger. I am so invested in this story! The plot is so intriguing. I can’t wait to read part three to see what happens next.
