An eventful night leads to Lucky needing a favor, and Carter is more than happy to oblige. Carter Harrington doesn’t believe in love, and why should he? He’s one of Atlanta’s most eligible bachelors and co-owns Nirvana, an ultra-luxurious lounge and nightclub.

He’s also President of Harrington Corporation, the country’s largest black-owned real estate development company. Tying himself down to one woman when he could access so many would be foolish.

But even with his convictions, Carter knows there’s no denying his intense attraction to Lucky, a dancer at the club. Lucky Cormier used to be what people would call a hopeless romantic, but a recent breakup has left her single for the first time… ever.

While nursing her aching heart, she can’t help but still miss the affection and comfort that being in a relationship provided. Her new misfortune leaves her turning to the last person she ever expected: her billionaire boss.

After witnessing the outcome of her nasty breakup firsthand, Carter proposes an offer Lucky can’t refuse. A no-strings-attached arrangement that could benefit them both, allowing Lucky all the rewards of a relationship without the drama, and him the satisfaction of finally being able to get her out of his system.

As they embark on their steamy, friends-with-benefits arrangement, it’s not just their physical connection that deepens. Will Lucky resist the pull of their intense chemistry, or be swept away by the all-consuming passion they share? And what happens when Carter starts to question his own beliefs and realizes that the type of love he’s been avoiding might just be what he needed all along?.
