Forget Prince Charming. I want my hero in plaid.

I’ve always loved Beauty and the Beast.

Maybe that’s why I’m so drawn to my new boss, Remington.

He has the scars left over from a bad rodeo accident and the same bear-with-a-thorn-in-his-paw attitude.

As I clean his home and help him out around the house, my attraction for him only grows. Sure, he answers most questions in grunts or disgruntled looks, but something about that calls to me.

We both finally give in to our attraction one hot summer night, and then I’m headed back to Sequoia University for my last year of college.

I can’t stop thinking about my scarred hero, though.

Not every romance is a fairy tale, but I’m determined to make what I have with Remington mine.

Now I just need to get him on the same page.
