His Dahlia (The May Flowers Series)
Alexx Andria - 2019
Until all hell broke loose.
In a single day, my best friend and business partner threatened to fire me, I’d hit a stray dog with my car and the cute vet with the stunning eyes friend-zoned me on sight. Now my beloved BMW convertible is in the shop and I’ve become a reluctant dog owner. The only bright spot? Meeting the sexy vet, Dr. Dahlia Kent. Although we’re opposite in every way and she’s clearly immune to my charm, it only makes me want her more. If I were smart, I’d find a home for the dog, lose Dahlia’s number and get back to what I’m good at — looking for the easy win. But for some reason, I can’t seem to walk away from the dog — or her. Am I ready for a big change? Or am I taking on more than I can handle?
