Not even close. The woman is stunning. She's also a colossal pain in my- you know what. Julia's my number one competitor in the wine industry and she also happens to live next door. Not a good combination for a guy who's been told to "stay away from her" his whole life. Our parents can't stand each other; a bitter, outdated rivalry with no end in sight. Which doesn't fare well for my heart. Or my loins. Yeah, I went there. What can I say; I want her. I've always wanted her.

Book Description
Katarina Kelly is an emergency room physician assistant who has surrounded herself with friends and her job, as she's given up on the likes of men. This was beyond bad luck. The men of her past were heartless and cruel. They left her brokenhearted and alone with nothing but nightmares of their treatment of her to keep her company. She's sticking to book boyfriends from here on out. She's never going back there. Especially that arrogant orthopedic surgeon, Nicholas Barnes. That delectable divorced doctor is the last thing she needs. He's admittedly never getting into another relationship. Why on earth would she give him a second glance. Getting some decent sleep was much more important to her than men anyway. Maybe the sleeping pills her friend has offered will help. That and seeing a therapist. But what happens when the sleeping pills cause side effects she didn't anticipate? While some of these steamy dreams are okay, others are beyond perplexing. They are downright frightening. If only she could trust this handsome physician wouldn't break her heart like all of the rest. She'd surely prefer to wake up alongside him versus cold sheets and the mind-bending thoughts of the men in her dreams. This man is beautiful. He's charming. And he could be the love of my life or my complete destruction.

Book Description
The sixteen original essays in this collection cover influential and famous rivalries from a variety of sports, including track and field, golf, boxing, basketball, tennis, ice skating, baseball, football, soccer, and more. The essays are diverse, but together they illustrate what is common to any rivalry: equally matched opponents that often have decidedly different backgrounds, styles, and personalities. These differences may center on race and culture, political and societal ideologies, personality, geography, or religion—a mix intensified by fans and the media. From highly publicized and emotionally charged individual competitions to bitterly fought team contests, Rivals illuminates what one-of-a-kind opponents and the passion they inspire tell us about ourselves and our society.
