Asking for Trouble by Tessa Bailey
This was very fast paced. Hayden and Brent don't really like each other, but they like to argue with each other. He takes her home to make sure she gets there safe and they start to hookup until her mother shows up to remind her she has to go to a dinner tomorrow. She then invites Brent because she really doesn't want to have to spend the evening with Stuart. He agrees, if she can find him a suit. She assumes, because he's a cop, that he will embarrass her and that will upset her parents. Instead, he charms them and their friends. Then, when Stuart corners her in the kitchen, he rescues her. Afterwards, they go back to her place and sparks fly. Then, her friend and her friends boyfriend decide that the four of them need to go to Atlantic City for the weekend. She needs to get away because her mother told her that her father is going to lose the company if she doesn't marry Stuart and get them an influx of cash. The three of them pick Brent up at his house and she sees him with his nieces and she practically swoons. But she ends it with him after her friends get engaged and takes a bus back home. She sees her dad meeting with a real estate agent and decides to marry Stuart to save him. She ends up telling her best friend everything because she needs a witness to the marriage. Best friend calls new fiance who gets Brent and they book it to the court house to stop the wedding. He is causing a scene in the best way, but she couldn't go through with it and runs to him. Dad ended up coming through at the last minute with an investor. Hayden and Brent end up together. Hayden goes to work for the charity side of dad's company. Everyone is happy. This was very fast paced, but fun and a good palate cleanser.
