I didn't see her coming, and now I refuse to watch her go.

Candy
I don't know what I’ve done to offend the stars above, but my life feels like it’s headed up a smelly creek without a paddle. My job is at risk, my car has broken down, and the only bright spot is the sexy mechanic of my dreams, who seems immune to my charms. Then, out of nowhere, he kisses me and starts talking about forever. All I know is that I've never felt safer in my life than I do in his arms.

Slate
I'm focused on my job—building a business and trying to get my partner to stop giving away free labor to everyone with a car and a sob story. But then the curvy bombshell of my dreams walks into the garage looking like sex on legs, and I find myself going against everything I've ever said. Now that I've met her... she's mine. Can I convince Candy that when I say forever, I mean it? Or will I be left picking up the pieces of my broken heart by morning?
