An injured rugby star, his pregnant roommate, and one rule they canât break: Donât date the ownerâs daughter.
It was supposed to be an easy house- and dog-sitting gig while the owner was gone for a month. But when my sportsing landlord comes home unexpectedly, injured and in need of a new arrangement, we end up as accidental roommates instead.
But if Holt Webster, the tall, thick-muscled, square-jawed, broody-eyed rugby player, had told me he played for the Copper Valley Pounders, I wouldâve told him that my stepdad bought the team while I was working cruise ships overseas.
And he wouldâve noped out of offering me a place to stay because the only thing worse than looking like youâre flirting with the ownerâs daughter is looking like youâre hooking up with the ownerâs pregnant daughter.
Yes, yes, Iâm that womanâthe one who accidentally got knocked up, decided to keep the baby, and had to move home because pregnancy and cruise ships arenât a good match.
And now Iâm that woman who doesnât just look like sheâs hooking up with an off-limits player. I actually am hooking up with an off-limits player. But who can blame me? Heâs hot. Heâs kind. And heâs spending our nights sleeping with his hand on my baby bump.
Claiming us both.
But if my dad finds out, Holtâs gone. And weâll beâŚrucked.
The Roommate Mistake is a heart-tugging sports romcom featuring two people in need of new best friends, a dog with an attitude, and a veryâŚfowlâŚmeet-cute. It stands alone and comes complete with a found family happily ever after.
