Ryan Fitzpatrick may come from a family in which he'd feel his mother's wooden spoon if he declared that a woman's place is in the kitchen, or that she should defer to her man, but he still goes for the type of girl that wouldn't think of curbing his freedom, telling him what to do, or making demands. If he were to commit to any woman, she wouldn't be complicated, let alone pigheaded or irascible-he doesn't want to end up with a woman like his sister, whose loudmouthed temper is enough to drive a man crazy. But by some embarrassing twist of fate, he meets Jordan Esposito, a woman even more domineering and hotheaded than his sister. And Jordan is responsible for Ryan's absolute and total humiliation. Luckily, he has sworn never to go out with obstinate, complicated, maddening women. But would it really be so bad if he made an exception just this once? Also by Poppy J.
