Why Not Both?

Lis Stone

After escaping another disastrous internet date, I am done with dating. I've just landed my dream job as the head chef for Vancouver's premier wedding venue, Blue Vista Events. I don't have time to date. But my sister has other plans, dragging me to a bar, and forcing me to promise that if a "smoking hot guy" asks me to dance, I'll say yes.

Enter Spencer Cole.

The man is gorgeous, funny, and he can dance. An instant connection ignites, leading to a one-night stand that leaves me craving more.

Then I discover he's the event coordinator for Blue Vista, so I end it before it begins. I have a hard rule: No dating co-workers. I've worked hard to get where I am in my career, and I refuse to let a man derail me. Again.

From the second I see Lis Stone, every other woman disappears into the background. After one steamy night and one perfect date, I'm convinced: our connection is natural and hot and real. My instincts have never steered me wrong before, and they're telling me that Lis is the woman of my dreams. Dreams I begin to realize I've ignored for the better part of a decade.

When she pulls away, I assure her we can still be friends. As our connection deepens, I start to make the changes I need to build the future I want. A future where Lis features in the starring role.

Now I just need to convince her. Why does it have to be me or the job? Why not both?
