Playboy Norris Converse is getting
hit from all sides. A no-strings physical relationship has become a passionate love he never expected,
and an ex-lover, who’s leaving the country for six months, divulges he has a sixteen-year-old daughter she thinks it’s
time he got to know.
Faced with the prospect of parenting
an almost adult biracial daughter and being in love for the first time, Norris wants to settle down and have the domestic
bliss his best friend enjoys. But the woman he loves, business savvy salon owner Dahlia Sinclair, isn’t
interested in being a couple, and his newly found daughter, Reese, isn’t thrilled with making room for Daddy.
One-year divorced and eighty pounds
lighter, Dahlia is enjoying her new body, new life, and the pleasure of being in control of them both for a change.
Following the painful end of her marriage to a cheating louse, the no-ties, no commitment arrangement with accountant
Norris, who’s helping with her audit, seems ideal…until her heart gets involved.
Things are further complicated when she discovers her young
friend and client Reese Elders is Norris’s daughter, and Dahlia agrees to play guardian and peacemaker while Reese’s
mother is out of town.
Keeping her growing feelings to herself is hard enough, but when Norris changes the rules and starts talking
forever, she ends their arrangement in an attempt to take control before losing control. A decision Norris
isn’t willing to take lying down, as he refuses to let Dahlia’s
fear of returned heartbreak ruin the love he knows she feels for him.
Being in constant contact while they engage
in the unconventional co-parenting of his daughter and work on the audit, Norris and Dahlia are forced to deal with their
personal insecurities and growing love as they confront the unlikely emotions that have left them both blindsided.
