He was my nemesis for years. Now his single dad charm has me hooked.Deacon Reynolds and I were rivals growing up.It was exhausting trying to outdo him at everything.I was thrilled when he left our quaint hometown for the city.I’ve been head of marketing at his parents’ resort for years.Last week the job I love unraveled.Deacon showed up out of nowhere, brimming with smugness.He announced his takeover of the family business.I can’t believe he’s my new boss.I’m forced to work with him on a new campaign for the resort.Spending long hours with a grumpy workaholic isn’t my idea of fun.But around his daughter, his demeanor transforms; he beams.Deacon’s playful and affectionate, completely devoted to her happiness.His magnetic single dad vibe pulls me in like a moth to a flame.I’m in a tug of war for control, my head battling my heart.Having feelings for him comes with professional risks.So I’m trying hard to fight it.But I can’t stop myself from falling.
