Pass the wine, please. Caelen Calvo has three meddling sisters, an employment problem, a married ex-boyfriend, and a massive headache from all the drama. Her only hope of redemption comes in the form of Ms. Belle's Charm School that she and her sisters have recently inherited. The problem? The real money comes, not from the daytime classes on manners and etiquette, but from naughty evening classes that each sister must now teach. Caelen draws the short straw. The first topic on the charm school's roster is oral pleasure. Caelen has four short days to research advanced techniques like The Corn on the Cob and The Twist and Twirl . . . plus prep the charm school for a party and - oh yeah - find a man willing to be her temporary guinea pig. Dare Lagos has been in love with Caelen since middle school. The boxer-turned-firefighter has always fought for what he wants, professionally. The battle for Caelen's heart will be no different. Doesn't matter that they used to bicker endlessly, back in the day. Doesn't matter that he has a cheating ex-wife, who gave him serious trust issues. And it shouldn't matter that he's been suspended from his job as a Hotshot, because he may have over-reacted when his ex-wife's Boy Toy was assigned to his station. Nope. None of that matters, just the taste of her smart mouth, the feel of her smooth skin, and her sultry scent surrounding him. He wants Caelen Calvo, and he's going to make sure that the only name on her short-list is his.
