Veritas

As a lawyer, thirty-four-year-old Maria Tavares is a master of terms and conditions. Contracts make everything simpler, including relationships. But now she needs a date to the wedding of her brother's best friend-an event that's bound to be awkward and complicated considering she used to sleep with the groom.

She might have been the one to break his heart, but his pending nuptials have forced Maria to admit that the terms and conditions she's chosen for her life have made things very lonely.

The universe offers her a solution in the form of thirty-eight-year-old Jordan Kovacs-a former one-night-stand and lawyer who works in the same building-who knows firsthand how it feels to be rejected by Maria.

When they get trapped in an office elevator together, all Maria's fears and insecurities collide with the irresistible chemistry that still burns between them.

So she makes him an offer-be her date for the wedding. Jordan's counteroffer? Date him for three months to prove she's not as terrified of commitment as he thinks.

A lot can change in three months, including the hard heart of a woman who thinks she's better off alone.
