Six-foot plus, blond Adonis types did not ask Alex on dates. So when JJ Vanzant did just that, it made her suspicious and snippy. What did he—in all his sexy glory—want with a run-down single mother of two who was currently unemployed? What she needed was a job, not a fling. Unfortunately, the best and only job available was at his private detective agency. His ego would just have to take the rejection because she'd been hired and was going nowhere.

JJ didn't know if he'd been blessed or cursed when Alex showed up in his office, but she couldn't stay there. So his friend, Nance, was tasked with finding her another job. Meanwhile, all he had to do was keep his hands off her...which proved damn near impossible. In the time it takes for him to fall for the dark-haired minx, he would have to help her keep custody of her two adorable boys. But what will happen if she doesn't need him anymore? Will his heart get broken like it was when he was a child?
