EXCERPT
"Fine" , he nodded. " Twenty days where we get to know each other and do normal couple stuff. I'll have a to move in here, of course."
"Are you out of your mind? Absolutely not ! " The last thing I needed in my life was to have my unwanted soon-to-be-ex-husband underfoot.
Plus , did I mention my thing for his dimples? Those things seem to mesmerize me. The more time I spend around them , the more likely I was to do something stupid. Like reach out and touch them. Or kiss them. Which could inevitably lead to kiss other body parts.
Nope, nope and nope. Can't have any of that happen.
"Liz, be logical about this. How can we really spend time getting to know each other if I'm in Montana and you're in Florida? I wouldn't have a fighting chance ."

About Natalie Rios
Natalie can’t sing. Or dance. Or play an instrument. She can’t ride a bike and doesn’t know how to swim or drive. As a result, her husband often asks “Are you sure you’re not really from Mars?” (the answer, in case you were wondering, is no. Unless New York counts as another planet). When she’s not geeking out at her day job, Natalie can be found attempting to wrangle
her overly energetic Westie, baking ridiculously chewy chocolate chip cookies, and watching so-bad-it’s-good reality television shows.
