JayCee Kray knows a new beginning isn't supposed to start with a need to be rescued. But, if she needed to collapse, at least she did it in front of her new neighbor; a trained public servant. Even better, he'd all male sexy. The only problem is, JayCee knows she's not the type of girl a sexy cop like Andrew MacFarlin would go for.

Even as she hides behind her profession as a humor columnist, JayCee's personal life is a mess. She'd allowed the wrong people to have the wrong kind of control over her for too long. Though highly praised for her job, she lacks he confidence and courage to give Andrew access to the woman she is inside

Andrew MacFarlin couldn't have been happier to find his new neighbor on his doorstep needing assistance. The little cutie sparks something in him the moment they meet. Her stand-offish manner isn't going to deter him. He doesn't see a woman in need of rescue - he sees a very intelligent, witty, caring woman who's hiding behind a wall she's built around her

Andrew is more than willing to help JayCee settle into a new way of life, just as willing to give her pert bottom a sound spanking when she purposely does self-destructive things
