Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker. Living with his best friend should have been easy. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can’t deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. In fact, she’s nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely just friends. Now, Hannah’s in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. Everyone knows he’s a guaranteed good time–in bed and out–and that’s exactly how he prefers it. Synopsis: King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt.
