From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Laurelin Paige comes a new story in her Man In Charge seriesā¦
Brett Sebastian is the very best kind of friend.
Who else would get me a job at one of the biggest corporations in America?
And hook me up with his uber-rich cousin to boot?
And let me cry on his shoulder every time said cousin blows me off?
Okay, itās pretty obvious that Brett cares about me in a different way than I do for him, but he seems fine with how things are, and our friendship works.
Until one fateful night when I’m mooning over his cousin, and Brett utters four words that should make me happy for him, should make me relieved, should balance out our uneven relationship:
āI met a girl.ā
Suddenly my world is crashing down around me, and Iām forced to ask myselfāam I only interested in Brett now that heās taken?
Or have I been looking at the wrong man all along?

Excerpt
How may I help you?ā I asked when she finally crossed over to me because I wasnāt going to scream at her from several yards away, no matter how lost she looked.
āYes, I have an appointment with Scott Sebastian.ā The maliciousness Iād thought Iād seen must have been imagined. Now all I sensed was friendly professionalism with maybe a trace of nervousness. āTess Turani with Conscience Connect. Ten a.m.ā
I pulled up Scottās calendar, realizing this was the first time Iād looked at it all day. In fact, Iād barely looked at it all week. In the past, I would have had each hour memorized, searching for the best times to pop into his office with made-up paperwork to sign or a question that I already knew the answer to.
I really was over him, wasnāt I?
Iād spent my energy this week thinking about Brett instead, but pining for him looked a lot different than pining for Scott. Iād tried very hard to act natural around him, like the night weād spent together and his follow-up rejection hadnāt affected me in the least. He needed time to see that I wasnāt into Scott anymore, and hard as that was for me to give, time was what heād get.
My surprising self-discipline had kept me from stalking his calendar. Which was why, when I didnāt find Tess Turani on Scottās, I had to do a search for her name to find she was on Brettās.
āOh, there you are. Youāre not meeting with Scott; youāre booked with Brett.ā My ribs felt tight. As if there was something lodged in between them. Heād called up earlier to tell me where heād be for his pitch meeting today, but he hadnāt given any indication that it was with a woman.
A young, attractive, big-eyed, beautiful-skinned woman.
Well, hello, Green-Eyed Monster, my old friend.

For the last decade Eden has been best friends with Brett and is always there to support her as she makes one questionable choice after another when it comes to the men in her life. It is only when he shows interest in another woman that her feelings for him go much deeper than friends, but will it be too late?
Brett has been in love with his best friend for years, but he has come to the conclusion that that they are destined to only be friends until one steamy night changes everything, but will it be enough to overcome the events of the last decade?
The chemistry between them radiates off the pages and after everything that Brett has done for her in the past, I enjoyed seeing Eden fight for her man.
