Million Dollar Date

by Susan Hatler

Book 1 of the Do-Over Date series

107 pages · First published 2019

A woman agrees to a date connected to a million-dollar premise, but the money surrounding the situation makes it difficult to know what is genuine. The man on the other side of the arrangement has reasons of his own for participating, and their carefully bounded encounter begins producing feelings neither budgeted for. Wealth, expectations, and the artificial circumstances of the date complicate ordinary romantic trust. Susan Hatler’s sweet contemporary romance uses a high-dollar setup for a light story about discovering that the most valuable outcome of a date cannot actually be purchased.
