Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn鈥檛 as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I鈥檇 definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn鈥檛 have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don鈥檛 fall for the girl. After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more. I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn鈥檛 felt in a really long time. Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together. I couldn鈥檛 stop thinking about her. But she hadn鈥檛 even given me her number. In a city with eight-million people, I figured I鈥檇 never see Devyn again.

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he鈥檇 signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn鈥檛 get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

Reasons why I should not be drawn to Troy Serrano. Number one: He鈥檚 obnoxious. Number two: We were enemies more than a decade ago. Number three: He鈥檚 my friend鈥檚 ex-boyfriend. I could go on and on, really. When my boss gives me an unwanted assignment, and tells me it involves spending time with the grandson of one of our residents, the grandson turns out to be Troy. Lucky me. Four hours a week of having to deal with his insufferable personality and unsolicited advice - the only consolation is getting to stare at his annoyingly gorgeous face, in between our many arguments.

It all started when I hosted a little party for a bunch of new friends. Though 鈥渇riends鈥� might not be the right word since the invitees were all the women I鈥檇 found out my boyfriend was talking to behind my back. When the guest of honor walked in鈥攁ka my now ex鈥攖hings took a turn鈥� Unfortunately, a stranger witnessed the whole blowout. I was in a mood that night and ended up giving this gorgeous guy an attitude, too. As if my night could get any worse, before he stormed off, he informed me he was actually my landlord.

The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview. Well, technically, I鈥檇 met him 20 minutes earlier when he鈥檇 barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment. I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut. As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss. Yet he didn鈥檛 seem to recognize me. Or so I thought.... Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

When my grandmother found out she didn鈥檛 have long to live, she embarked on a crazy trip鈥攋umping out of airplanes and scuba diving with sharks. After I repeatedly voiced my concern, Gram blocked me鈥�i>her own grandson鈥攐n text and social media, leaving me only her travel companion Eleanor鈥檚 number.

Rule number one for dating your best friend鈥檚 sister: Don鈥檛. Just don鈥檛 do it. Especially when your best friend is dead and the last thing he made you promise him was that you鈥檇 keep an eye on his little sister, but not too good of an eye.

It all started with an unexpected phone call. Two years after my fianc茅 passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Brad鈥檚 adult special-needs brother with no one to care for him. The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where I鈥檇 be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home. The last thing I ever expected? I wouldn鈥檛 be taking care of him alone.

It started out like any normal day. Then the fender bender happened. The guy I collided with drove an expensive car and was drop-dead gorgeous. Too bad he was also a total jerk. We argued over whose fault it was and any other thing that came out of his condescending mouth. Eventually, the police came and we went our separate ways. The insurance companies would have to figure things out. I had a job interview to get to anyway - one I was excited about. Though that excitement changed to disappointment the moment the person interviewing me walked in. The guy from the accident.

What do you do when a sexy older man moves into your family鈥檚 summer rental? Well, apparently, you make a fool of yourself - over and over. Things didn鈥檛 exactly get off on the right foot with Noah Cavallari. Our first encounter was embarrassing, to say the least. But despite that, I found myself waking up every day with a newfound energy. Nothing exciting ever happened on the lake - not until Noah moved into the small boathouse on our property. When my mother became ill, I inherited the responsibility of making sure our guests were well taken care of.

I鈥檝e sworn off men to focus on my dream job that starts on Monday. But my best friend talks me into a final night of fun鈥攁 blind date. I only agree because the guy is going to work as a doctor in Africa. It鈥檚 the best date of my life. Dr. Africa makes me laugh and swoon, and I want to give him a thorough physical examination. He turns into Dr. One Night Stand, and I鈥檓 not sad about it. Monday morning, I鈥檓 enthusiastic and excited, until I bump into...you guessed it.

It started out like any other morning on the train - until I became mesmerized by the guy sitting across the aisle. He was barking at someone on his phone like he ruled the world. Who did the stuck-up suit think he was...God? Actually, he looked like a god. That was about it.

My planned trip for two unexpectedly turned into a trip for one. Rather than let my breakup get me down, I packed my bags and decided a week at a luxury resort was just what I needed. But one calamity after the next, and suddenly I was stuck without a hotel room, along with a few hundred other people. It looked like my fancy vacation was about to turn into me sleeping on the hotel lobby floor. Until I overheard a gorgeous man pretending to be someone he wasn鈥檛 in order to steal a reservation from a guest who hadn鈥檛 shown up yet.

How to kick off a great summer in the Hamptons: Snag a gorgeous rental on the beach. Check. Get a job at a trendy summer haunt. Check.

He was my best friend since we were little. Even though he was off-limits, as we grew up, he became my forever, my everything. But I couldn鈥檛 let my selfish dreams hold him back. They say that if you love someone, you should let them go. I did. He became the world鈥檚 greatest soccer player. Money. Fame. Beautiful women. He had it all. One thing I never expected was for him to walk back into my life again.

A summer job. That's all it was supposed to be. It never crossed my mind that I was about to collide with a man who would obliterate every plan I ever made. My mother has always warned me that love is like a lightning bolt and it strikes without warning. But I had no intention of getting struck by either lightning or love anytime soon. I'd be too busy finishing my journalism degree and landing a job in a city far more sophisticated than Phoenix. There was certainly nothing in the cards about getting involved with an ex-ballplayer turned nightclub boss.

Love and the right timing were two things I didn't believe in. Love is about walking to the edge of the cliff and taking the leap together. Timing was never on our side.
