Let me make a few things clear. I didn’t go to the wedding intending to dance with the best man, to dare him to show me a very sexy pic on his phone, or to accidentally kiss him in the hotel elevator after the reception ended. But you know how it goes. Things just happen at weddings… The next day, Crosby and I agree to put all those shenanigans behind us. The fun-loving, stupidly gorgeous, all-star baseball player might be my brother’s best friend, but he’s my friend too and has been for years, so it’s easy to move on, especially because I have a high-profile business to run. But since he’s newly single and I’m always single, it turns out we both desperately need plus ones. We agree to “publicly date” over the next two weeks of galas, parties and events before his baseball season begins. The only trouble is the more time I spend with Crosby, the more I keep imagining how much I want him to take my V-card. And when I broach the possibility with Crosby, his answer surprises the hell out of me.

Prologue Nadia A woman needs three things in her purse when she’s out with her friends for the night: tissues, lipstick, and a Leatherman multi-tool. Just the thing for picking the lock on a bathroom door if, say, your bestie gets stuck in the ladies’ room at The Extravagant hotel right before the sold-out concert you’re there to see. Who only needed forty-five seconds and that Swiss Army knife for lumberjacks to spring Scarlett in time for the opening song? This girl. But when morning rolls around, it’s time to change out the handbag arsenal. Because by day, every badass businesswoman must have three weapons at her disposal when she marches into the boardroom. Not lipstick. Please, gloss works just fine for nine to five. Definitely not tissues, because I don’t ever let a business associate see me cry. And save the Leatherman, because wits matter more in the bright light of day. What’s in my purse when I meet with the guys is this: my ovaries of steel, my ultimate poker face, and one hell of a mantra to navigate any conference room or sports arena where I’m the only one who doesn’t pee standing up. Don’t be afraid to speak up. I’m not one bit hesitant to use my voice. My father instilled sky-high confidence in me, whether it comes to school, to life, or to running the football team he gave me before he died a year ago. He prepped me to fill his big shoes since I could walk, since I could talk, since I could fly down the street on my bike like the wild child I was. Look, Ma, no hands! That was me. He taught me to be a squeaky wheel, and I aim to get the grease. I’ll tell you
