Little did I know that a random SOS call from a woman stuck in a plaster cast with nothing underneath (I swear I only caught a flash of skin) would throw me for a complete loop. Shoot the shit with my fireman buddies, come home, and do it all again tomorrow. Run into burning buildings, save those in distress, be a hero. Something you can’t get back.From Book 1:My life has always been pretty predictable. * Except bend too far, and something breaks.

* Realize bending one tiny rule can’t be that bad, can it? * Remember, this is fake dating, even though his very talented, very real lips are doing some sexy things you definitely like. Seriously, they call him One Night O’Neil. Not a Strip-O-Gram Fireman to help him with a bet. * Figure out how you, in fact, agreed to fake dating Mr. * Reschedule the fire safety inspection you 100 percent failed because of said humiliation. * Die in a raging blaze of humiliation when the super-hot and very delicious fireman waiting in your office is not in fact the strip-o-gram birthday present you suspected. * Re-stock wine and ice cream because that’s coming.

Or debt, your crappy apartment, and nonexistent social life. * Don’t think about your birthday tomorrow.

These two sweet, but awkward souls work so hard for their happily ever after and I hope everyone falls in love with them as much as I did.įor more information on THE DATING DILEMMA here is the back cover copy: It was just so much fun, from the meet-cute where Lexi thinks Dyson is a strip-o-gram, to the fake dating pact, the conflicting bets, and cabin with one bed (wink wink), and this cover captures that energy perfectly. THE DATING DILEMMA is a hilarious and steamy story that I absolutely loved writing. Might just have to draw a shirt on him when I share it over there, lol. Though I am worried it might be too spicy to show on my Tiktok account. While Dyson would never break the rules by coming to work without full firefighting gear on, I am so happy he decided to leave his shirt off for this cover. THE WEDDING DILEMMA had five-alarm fire cover hotness, but then I got a look at THE DATING DILEMMA and…what’s hotter than a five alarm? Is there a sixth alarm? (I feel should know this seeing as how I write firefighter romance).

Every time I think Bree Archer has given me the perfect cover she outdoes herself with the next one.
