Flirting with Forever

Sometimes you get a second chance at a first impression

Mary Trace is bright, bubbly and back in the dating pool in her midthirties. All of her closest friends are in love, and she refuses to miss out on romance. So when a regular customer at her trendy Brooklyn boutique wants to set Mary up on a blind date with her son, she gives a hesitant yes. John Modesto-Whitford is gorgeous and well-groomed, so maybe dinner won’t be a total bust—until he drops a less-than-flattering comment about Mary’s age.

Desperate to be nothing like his snake of a politician father, public defender John Modesto-Whitford prides himself on his honesty and candor. But his social awkwardness and lack of filter just blew it with the most beautiful woman he’s ever dated.

Luckily, Mom’s machinations keep Mary and John running into each other all summer long, and soon they resort to fake dating to get her to back off. When their pretense turns to real friendship—and some surprisingly hot chemistry—can these two stubborn individuals see past their rocky start to a rock-solid future together?

Loved this

Loved this light-hearted love story. Totally got lost in this throughout my workday. Awesome writer and narrator.

favorite in the series of 3

I thought this was the best story in the three. I was apprehensive since I wasn't sure about the female narrator but she was great and the story was rather cute and funny. yes there was sexy scenes later in the book but that's how the series went. skip the chapter if it's not your jam.

Age isn't Everything!

A little slow at first and then it picked up and then I couldn't put it down.

I enjoyed this book

I have the complaint I would think every author would appreciate of wanting more. The story is complete, but leaves many life questions unanswered. I consider it a HEA even though there are many things I think this couple will be dealing with in their future together. I think the author set them up for success by letting them get to know each other through their mistakes in reading each other at the beginning and their own self doubts projecting as rejection of the other, followed by little epiphanies that opened up their eyes to the real person and acceptance. Good solid story with well developed characters that take time to develop.
