Not Boyfriend Material
253 pages · First published 2024
ER nurse Lucy has allowed her life to become painfully predictable since an accident changed the person she used to be. Her best friend creates a thirty-day challenge designed to pull the old Lucy back out, and many of the embarrassing tasks end up involving coworker Dr. Graham Shackwell—her oldest brother’s best friend and a reformed playboy she considers distinctly unsafe boyfriend material. Graham’s willingness to join the challenges surprises her, and time together makes Lucy feel more like herself than she has in years. The problem is that recovering her appetite for life also means confronting feelings for the one man she has already decided she should not want.
