Publisher's Synopsis
ER nurse Sonnet Mendoza's new housemate Griffith Parker proves there is more to a man than meets the eye, and shows her there's more to life than just her career. ALWAYS FAITHFUL Sheltered and cosseted, Sonnet Mendoza abided by her papi's wishes her whole life: no boys, studies first and always. Now an ER nurse in a busy Chicago hospital, medical school is so close Sonnet can taste it-just like her father always wanted. Just like she can taste all the things she wants, like Griffith Parker, the man of her dreams and her new housemate. Working "graves" in a large hospital as a security guard while attending the police academy during the day doesn't leave ex-Marine Griffith Parker any personal time, but after meeting the beautiful Sonnet Mendoza business as usual is anything but. Sassy, smart...and interested in him, too? Except, she's made an art of keeping her distance, and she's been clear that her plans don't include him. But the heart wants what the heart wants. His wants Sonnet. He'll put it on the line to win her.
