Review Quotes:
"Herkness gives the usual billionaire trope an intriguing spin with this series in which three men make a late-night pledge that they will fall in love within the year or have to pay up to the others. Thriller author Gavin Miller is the last of the trio to find true love, but that's not his biggest problem. What keeps him up at night and twisting his shoulders into knots is the fact that he hasn't typed a word in over a year. Not only do his fans want to read more, but he has a movie deal already in place for the new book. The book that doesn't yet exist. Gavin's literary agent forces him to try a physical therapist, Allie Nichols, to loosen up his back, and despite his grumpy protests, Allie's therapy begins to work. More important to Gavin, Allie and her mom came up with alternate story lines for his books, jump-starting him creatively. Despite his bullheadness and hot temper, Herkness makes Gavin sympathetic, and Allie--a small-town girl come to New York and who's barely making ends meet--is a modern heroine who'll quickly win your heart." --The Amazon Book Review
