Three Bells, Two Bows and One Brother's Best Friend - Willa Nash

n nI pride myself in being grounded. Sure, I've had my share of childhood fantasies. Winning an Oscar.

Winning the lottery. Winning an Olympic medal for an athletic talent I have yet to discover. But the only fantasy I ever thought might actually happen was winning my brother's best friend.n n nn nHeath Holiday.n n nn nMy crush on him has ebbed and flowed over the years, but the day I started working for his construction company was the day I smothered it for good.

Sort of. Mostly. It was on my to-do list.

Making it a priority would have been easier had he not arrived at his family's annual Christmas party looking ridiculously handsome in a suit.n n nn nThen he kissed me. We stepped into an alternate universe and he kissed me. I assumed the next day I'd just be Guy's little sister again.

The office newbie. Our kiss forgotten. Except he keeps showing up at my house.

With gifts.n n nn nA gold bracelet carrying three jingling bells. Two dainty jeweled earrings, each shaped as a bow. And finally, he brought himself.n n nn nOne brother's best friend, asking if I can keep a secret.n
