Never expected to see her again—the woman I ditched at the motel after our one-night stand. Picture my surprise when she strolls into the office as my new assistant. But wait, there’s more. I come home to find her with suitcases, nowhere to stay. I could decline to have her move in, yet I see a chance. My nosy aunt’s visiting, expecting to meet my non-existent spouse.

Picture my surprise when she strolls into the office as my new assistant. But wait, there’s more. I come home to find her with suitcases, nowhere to stay. I could decline to have her move in, yet I see a chance. My nosy aunt’s visiting, expecting to meet my non-existent spouse. My assistant’s onboard with the madness of playing my newlywed wife. So, here are the ground rules for our little charade: 1. Our fake marriage is top-secret intel at the workplace. No slips of the tongue (hee-hee) or accidental leaks. We’re in this purely for show. 2. This is strictly a “no-love zone.” I don’t care if Cupid himself tries to shoot me with his arrow. 3. We gotta sell it like we’re head over heels in love. That means sharing a bed and putting on a stellar performance. Little do I know what I’m signing up for. Not only do I find myself trying to stop a fire she started (lesson learned: keep shorts handy at all times), but I’m also testing her “World’s Best Kisser” claim (let’s just say the results are…unexpected) and discovering a newfound appreciation for cramped spaces—and running washing machines. But then, suddenly, she’s gone. Now I find myself stuck in a mental loop of “what-if?” scenarios. Did I just let the world’s most remarkable woman slip through my fingers? From USA Today Bestselling Author Jolie Day comes A Bossy Roommate. Get ready for a weekend full of midnight shenanigans, fiery “stern boss” banter, irresistible “good girl” charm, and one (rather cozy) bed. Hearts and strawberries collide in berrylicious moments. It is a complete standalone with a swoony Happily Ever After. Definitely for adult readers only. less
