•My critique partners from Seton Hill University—Sherri Flemming and Becky Rae Halsey—who read draft after draft of this story way back in its formative stages and my mentors from the program, who passed it as my thesis project, even though it was far from being ready to publish—Vicki Thompson and Lucy A. Snyder.
•And finally, thanks to all the readers who took a chance on me and this book. Without you, none of this would be possible.
THANK YOU!

Max wants nothing to do with love or Haley, but the more time they spend together, the clearer it is that there’s a paper-thin line between love and hate…

She desperately needs someone high-profile to auction off for the multiple sclerosis society she’s chairing, but Sawyer McBain insists he wants a favor in return. Soon Addie and Sawyer are trading completely ridiculous I.O.U.s, like being his plus-one to his grandmother’s poker game or keeping each other company at the driving range. But when their agreement goes from flirty to fiery, neither is ready to let their guard down for a shot at love.
Mismatched in Mayhem
a Whiskey Sisters novel by L.E. Rico
Former “wild child” Walker is only interested in bartending, babysitting, and getting her bachelor’s degree. Dating isn’t even on her radar. At least, not until Mason walks into her bar. Mason has a secret—and it prevents him from knowing if someone is truly interested in him, or just what he can do for them. When Walker doesn’t recognize him, he keeps his identity a secret. But with the paparazzi in his life, nothing stays secret forever.
