Description
This is Carter. It's become Ava Collins' mantra since she met him in college. A way to remind herself that she isn't like all of the other women falling at his feet for just one night with him. A reminder that she can ignore his rogueish good looks and infamous history with women because she knows the truth of the man beneath. This is her brother's roommate. This is her coworker. This is her best friend. But after a decade of cuddled-up movie nights and building a business together, there's something new developing in this friendship - lies. She had never lied to Carter before, not once. But ever since a missent text message had sent her running to his apartment for an unexpected night with the city's most accomplished playboy, lying was all she seemed to be able to do around him. Lies about their friendship, about the new benefits that came along with it, and about just how much she was allowing it to affect her heart. Because, though Ava would never admit it, she was pretty sure she was falling in love with her best friend. But she couldn't be. After all... This is Carter.
