Synopsis

His Personal Relationship Manager

Hello, my name is Kenadie Marshall, and seven years ago I was left at the altar. I should probably introduce myself like this more often. Perhaps then people would understand why I have sworn off romantic relationships for good. Believe me, I’m not wallowing in my misery. In fact, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. Truly. I took my very public humiliation and turned it into the most comprehensive dating service around—Dating by Design. It’s the perfect balance between the software application I created and human intuition. I mean, just because I will never have true love doesn’t mean others don’t deserve a shot at happiness.

There’s just one little problem. One of our new clients, Jason Hadley, insists on me being his personal relationship manager. I’ve never met anyone as kind and as attractive as he is. And somehow, he sees the real me behind all the walls I’ve built around my heart. Now I find myself setting him up with other women, while wishing I could date him myself. I’m beginning to think there is something seriously wrong with me. Dating Jason would jeopardize everything I’ve worked so hard to create. Not to mention the risk to my heart. The question is, is he worth it—or am I only setting myself up for the ultimate humiliation?

Statistically Improbable

According to the dating service I work for, Zander, fellow matchmaker and self-proclaimed eternal bachelor, and I are statistically improbable. One would think this would make me avoid him like the plague. But no, for some reason I can’t stop thinking about the arrogant man and his gorgeous green eyes that have a way of seeing right through me.

To make matters more interesting, Zander approaches me with an unusual proposition. He’s in need of a fake girlfriend. My first thought is, absolutely not. But what if this is the solution to my Zander problem? What if this is exactly what I need to work the man out of my system? And maybe, just maybe, in the process I could knock the egomaniac down a few notches. It’s a great plan, until the feelings become all too real. Come to find out, there’s more to Zander than I ever knew. Behind that arrogant exterior hides a man who strings popcorn and helps me pass my statistics class. And when he kisses me, I feel as if I’m a part of him. But the odds are more than probable that dating Zander in real life will only leave me hurt. Yet, I can’t help but think, despite what the software says, we are the perfect match.

Narcissistic Tendencies

Not many people can say they enjoy their job. Luckily for me, I can. I love putting my doctorate in psychology to use by evaluating clients for Atlanta’s premier matchmaking service. That all comes crashing to a halt when the one and only Nicholas Wells becomes not only a client, but the new face of the company. Now I have to take on a new role as his relationship manager and try to “fix” the actor-turned-writer-slash-producer—not to mention egotistical and possibly narcissistic celebrity—to save the company’s reputation.

Once upon a time, this would have been a dream come true—but the older, wiser, and live-within-the-boundaries-of-her-rules Kate knows more than I would like to about narcissists. Annulment is an ugly word, and one I can't or won't forget. But is Nick the man he says he is on paper, or is he the man I see before my eyes? An adoring father with a generous heart who's willing to smooth out some of his rough edges for the right woman, making me wonder who's fixing who. But is he magical enough to repair this reluctant matchmaker’s heart? Or was my first evaluation of him spot on: narcissistic tendencies?
