IT’S EASY TO TAKE ONE DARE WHEN YOU THINK IT’S HARMLESS.
Â
Ashley Dryden-Jones is the best rugby player on the field—when I take a dare I instantly regret, I had no way of knowing he was a gentleman. An athlete. British with no plans to stay in the States.
Â
He makes me forget myself, bruises, 5 o’clock shadow, accent and all.
Â
He makes me forget I cannot crawl into bed with him at night—or get drunk and throw caution to the wind for once in my overly cautious life.
Â
Because he’s my new roommate.
Â
ONE STUPID BET LEADS TO ONE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT.
Â
When I win a trip to Vegas I need a plus one; he’s the strapping, strong and responsible choice. Besides—I’ve never been anywhere and he has.
Â
He is the best friend I didn’t know I needed.
Â
Ashley is one of the good ones—but I’m about to find out how bad this good boy can be.

Among her favorite vices, she includes: iced lattes, historical architecture and well-placed sarcasm. She lives colorfully, collects vintage books, art, loves flea markets, and fancies herself British.Â
