Preferably him.An unbridled, hotshot attorney with a not-so-little black book, Connor Sullivan has earned himself quite the bad boy reputation. But in his defense, he's a very conscientious one.

Who knew a nice girl would be the one to make him want to break all his rules?BOOK #2: THE ONE SHE NEVER HOPED SHE COULD HAVE...Abby is well aware that everyone thinks she's in love with her best friend Brian. He is, after all, the type of man a nice girl should be with--the polar opposite of the bad boy--the kind of guy who didn't let his wife's decade-long illness stop him from showering her with a lifetime of love every second until her dying day.

It's taken a while but Brian Sullivan has finally come to terms with surviving the woman he spent half his life loving, a third of it losing.

Until now. Now that he's finally able to love her the way she deserves, the way he knows she wants to be loved...by his brother. Who's giving him exactly one chance to speak now or forever hold his peace.BOOK #3: A DECISION SHE NEVER DREAMED SHE'D HAVE TO MAKE...In this third and final book of the NYT & USA Today bestselling trilogy, Abby must decide once and for all between the two brothers -- between the bad boy wanting to start a life with her and the good guy fighting for the life they've already built.Books in the NICE GIRL TO LOVE four-book series include:-- Resisting the Bad Boy (Serial Trilogy Book #1)-- Falling for the Good Guy (Serial Trilogy Book #2)-- Choosing the Right Man (Serial Trilogy Book #3)-- Finding the Right Girl (Nice GUY spin-off series finale)
