For nearly a decade, Maggie has put the needs of her younger siblings ahead of her own. Now she’s willing to accept a marriage without passion in order to protect her brother, but fate has a wicked sense of humor. On the eve of her wedding, Maggie meets the man of her dreams.
When Shamus loses a bet, the
penalty is a blind date.
Shamus is prepared to endure a long, boring night; the last thing he expects is to find the woman who can bring his heart back to life.

But Maggie is keeping secrets--and
her engagement is only one of them.
Excerpt:
Shamus
stood in front of Maggie, drawing her to her feet.
“Twenty
seconds!”
His
dark blue eyes appeared almost indigo in the soft light of the bar.
“Ten
seconds!”
“Nine…eight…”
He
cupped her face in his hands.
“Five…four…”
I can’t kiss him.
I’m engaged.
As
the old year closed and the new one began, Shamus touched his lips to hers. The
noise surrounding them faded.
The
warmth of his callused hands framed her face. His rum and coke flavored kiss
began with a tenderness that stole the breath from her lungs. As his kiss grew
in intensity, the warm swirls that had danced in her blood all night grew as
well, reaching a lava hot stage within seconds.
When
Maggie was fifteen, her mother told her about the first time she kissed
Maggie’s father. “Once in your life,” her mother said, “there’s a kiss that
shatters everything you thought you knew and changes the direction of your
life.”
She
understood now. Maggie pressed her fingers to her lips in a fruitless attempt
to hold onto the sweetest kiss of her life. Tears strangled her heart at the
realization that it was also the most bitter, since it could only mean
farewell.
