The One I'm With (Sweet Somethings Book 3)

The truth is, letting yourself fall in love means daring to risk heartbreak. Interior designer Marissa O’Brien has sworn off long-term relationships. Sticking to her personal rules keeps her heart safe as she flirts, dates, and keeps things light. But those rules don’t stand a chance when a charming international stranger catches her eye during Girls’ Night Out. Josh Mattingly has spent two years rebuilding his reputation and focusing on his role in the family corporation. A quick business trip to Asheville was supposed to be all work—until Marissa walks into his world. One spark, one conversation, and he’s hooked. But his past is the one thing he’s afraid to confess. Marissa recognizes a reformed playboy when she sees one and tries to keep her distance—right up until a passionate kiss leaves them both singed. She knows their fling has an expiration date. Now, Josh must prove to Marissa—and himself—that he’s ready for something real. Marissa has her own reckoning to face, because loving someone means daring to let her guard down. But now that everything is on the line, will she finally take a chance with her heart?
