And again when the annoyingly sexy head of security, Maverick Green, is instructed to accompany her. Not wanting to lose her job, she bites her tongue. Sure, she has no desire to complicate her life with a relationship. But if she can avoid Maverick's appeal as her next-door neighbor, surely one whirlwind trip with him won't change anything. Well aware Carly has made it her life goal to avoid men, Mav Green has fought the temptation to pursue her. Now, he's been charged with making sure the ring she's delivering stays safe, and that's exactly what he's going to do. Little does he know, fate has a plethora of shenanigans in store for them. A robbery. Drag queens. Battles against nature. Each of their crazy hijinks is wilder than the last, and sparks undeniable chemistry between the pair. Thrust into a seemingly impossible job, will the time spent with Mav be enough to melt Carly's icy façade?
