One Good Catch
A Maguire's Corner novel
Ignoring
a recent trauma that is affecting her everyday life, ER Doctor Kate
Maguire engages in some high risk activities, but putting herself in
these dangerous situations isn’t enough to feed her edginess. She needs
something more. When her brother’s high school best friend comes back to
town, it’s her chance for a ‘no strings attached’ fling with the man
who still headlines in all her best dreams.
Rhys MacGrath’s days of one-night-stands are long over. The pro-football player might be side-lined at rehab for a shoulder injury, but that doesn’t mean he can’t admire and desire the all-grown-up, so-damn-hot, version of the tomboy he once knew. His sudden interest in Kate might be aggravating his best friend, who doesn’t approve, but it’s her indifference that’s driving Rhys crazy.
Everything heats up when Kate’s nosy nature sets her in the line of fire of an arsonist forcing them to deal with more than just the sparks igniting between them.

Excerpt:
Kate crossed her arms. “I’m not complicated.”
“Oh yes, you are. Incredibly complicated. And off limits.”
“Look, it was just a kiss. If you can’t handle a little first base, it’s your problem, not mine.”
Rhys stopped in front of her, shaking his head. “What?”
“I’m not some kid anymore, Rhys. I can kiss whomever I want. And I do. If you want to continue living by my brother’s rules, then I suggest you head back to the bar.”
“I guess I have more respect for Steve than to try and feel up his sister after being back in town for less than a day.”
“That’s fine. Whatever helps you sleep at night.”
“Fine. I’ll sleep just fine.”
“Then, goodnight.”
“Goodnight,” he said.
Rhys reached for her, his fingers tangling in her hair. He pulled her in to kiss her again. Kate enjoyed this kiss even more than the first one. It was full of his exasperation, plus his inevitable surrender, making it incredibly hot. Her victory was intoxicating.

About the author: Heather
M. Gardner's love of books began on the hand-woven rugs of her small
town library where her mother worked. There she had a never-ending
supply of stories to read at her fingertips. As a teen, her favorite
genres to curl up with were romance and mysteries. When she started
to create her own stories, they were the perfect fit.
Heather resides in New York with her best friend who is also her husband, plus her talented and handsome son. She is currently owned by four stray cats. Heather's a full-time mom, works part-time from home, a chocolate enthusiast, coffee junkie, cat addict, book hoarder and fluent in sarcasm.
