Falling in love isn’t in her plans…unless one special man can convince her otherwise.

Samantha Reynolds is a no-strings kind of gal who just wants to play the field and have fun. Or at least that’s the image she presents to the world. But the savvy real estate agent with the brash, take-charge manner has a softer side—and a secret wish for a happily-ever-after with a kind, decent man who will cherish her…even if that dream has zero chance of coming true.

Widower Brad Matthews isn’t looking for love, especially with someone like Sam. In no way does she fit the image of a minister’s girlfriend, let alone wife. But something tells him that beneath the spunky, sassy front she projects lies a caring, sensitive heart. And as sparks begin to fly, he’s determined to find out if that’s true—because he’s falling hard.

While the odds seem stacked against a woman with a party-girl reputation and a minister who walks the straight and narrow, might their pairing turn out to be a match made in heaven?
