The Rules of the Bachelor Pact: Never date the neighbour...

Beck

It’s probably a bad idea to fall for the one woman I was never supposed to touch. Mae O’Malley. . . my childhood best friend and the reason for Rule #1 of the Bachelor Pact: no dating the girl next door.

Following the rules has never been hard. Until Mae walks back into my life, fresh off a broken engagement and looking like a complication I want to make. She’s sexy, smart, and more off-limits than ever. But I’ve never been one to give up easily, especially not when it comes to the only woman I’ve ever loved.

Mae

Coming home with my heart still broken from Paris wasn’t part of the plan. But being surrounded by family, and Beck makes it easier. Or so I thought.

Because now he’s looking at me like I’m something more than a friend, and suddenly I’m feeling things I never thought I would again. Butterflies. Hope. Beck’s made it clear he’s not the settling-down type, and I’ve been burned before. So why can’t I protect my heart from the one person who’s always had it?
