Clay Nikolaidis: I don't know why everyone's so worried about me. I'm happy being single. H-A-P-P-Y, Happy. I don't understand why my twin sister thought her getting married and having my niece and nephew meant I felt left behind. Least of all, to the point that she decided I needed a dog… It’s a joke. She gave me a corgi and said he’s my new wingman. of a wingman, I've been striking out, and worse, just got evicted from my apartment. Now I'm staying at my cousin's place till I find a new one. This dog owes me. Xenia Rosario: I've loved everything about living in the Big Apple. Everything but my apartment seems to be big here. Shoebox apartment aside, I just became the owner of Tinkerbell, a therapy training dropout. Trust me when I say her name is meant to be ironic. She's bigger than me. This is probably how I got dragged through the park, and if I ever find the owner of that tiny dog who scared Tink, I'm giving them a piece of my mind. This is a standalone story but is the fifth book in the Ravenwood series. Book 1 - The Princess of Ravenwood Book 2 - Chasing Kitsune Book 3 - Expect The Unexpected Book 4 - Out Of My League Book 5 - Man's Best Wingman

Chapter 1 - Clay

I groaned, rolling away from the tongue, licking my face. Gross. Just fucking gross. Squinting through one eye, a large framed print of art greeted me. Or at least it’s called art by some people. I’m not sure I call a painting of two dudes on a hill with one riding the cock of the other while jerking himself off art. I know it is NOT something I want to wake up to see. But I don’t have a choice. This isn’t my place. I’m crashing at my cousin Makayla’s apartment since she’ll be in DC full time for at least six months. She’s fantastic for letting me stay here, especially with the mongrel, but did she have to have an entire erotic Japanese art set installed in EVERY room before I sublet from her? Of course, she did cause my cousin loves to torment anyone. I’m just her current victim. And worse, I’m paying her for this torture. A whine in the bed beside me brought my mind back to how I ended up in this predicament. Grumbling, I sat up, rubbing my hand over my face before looking at the

Another wonderful book!! I have laughed so hard it hurts and this is not just a nod to romance, But Life getting in the way and our animals fully taking over and inserting themselves when we aren't brave enough to do it ourselves. Absolutely brilliant!!!

I laughed so hard my sides and cheeks hurt. The fast paced plot line is a welcomed change from other novels I have read. The dogs point of view was a fabulous addition to the storyline and the amount of drama wasn’t over top or drug out. This is truly a unique read.

Great short story. It was nice to read about the guest appearance of the Frost triplets and Riko. Also, Reese and Don and their twins. Hope there’ll be from this series.

Chapter 2 - Xenia

Today’s my day off. I should sleep in. If I could, I totally would. So what’s stopping me from languishing in my bed? Seventy-four pounds of fluff is trying to suffocate me as she climbs onto my chest shaking in fear because an ambulance sped past our building with the sirens blasting. Whoever named her Tinkerbell can go to hell with their sense of humor “Tink…” I groaned under her weight, trying to get her off me so I could breathe. “I know… scary loud sounds.” I tried to soothe her by petting her head as I managed to get out from under her and lay on my side, giving up most of my bed to the massive six-month-old Leonberger puppy. “You’re safe. I’m right here.” I assured her, snuggling into her soft fur as another siren outside made her whimper. I sighed, turning my head to look at the clock on my microwave across my tiny apartment. No point trying to get any more sleep, I’m fully awake, and it will take some time to settle Tinkerbell down. Poor baby has severe anxiety about loud

Chapter 3 - Zeus

When Reese got me from the breeder, I’d hoped I would be living with her and her family. She was friendly, and I liked her husband and her babies for the brief period I spent around them before being put into a box. Even after Clay opened the box and I popped out, I didn’t believe I would be leaving. I thought it was just a way to surprise everyone else with me. The other little ones at her house were thrilled to meet me. I liked them, and they were good at chasing me. They played with me for hours. But then the big lummox picked me up and took me away. I cried the whole drive to his apartment. I had resigned myself to the fact that this was going to be my home, and I’d have to deal with Clay for the rest of my life. He didn’t seem bad. Clay took me to a pet store and got me a bed, toys, and other things I’d need. At least he was going to take care of me. So what’s my problem? He picked up the giggly blonde woman working at the pet store. You’d think I’d like her since she must l

Chapter 4 - Clay

Today started good, well beyond waking up the gay sex painting my cousin felt needed to be hung next to the bed. I’m eventually going to be desensitized to it all. Knowing my luck, by the time that happens, Makayla will decide to change the art to something else that will freak me out. Maybe I’ll find a new place before that happens, and then it won’t be an issue. Taking Zeus to the park was easy enough. Makayla’s place is less than two blocks from Central Park. Super convenient with a short-legged dog like Zeus. It’s so damn annoying how much of a chick magnet he is. Not that he’s a chick magnet, but I’m always happy to add some numbers to my phone. The problem is that even if I get these numbers, I can’t bring them home because he will fuck it up. He has fucked up every hookup since I got him. Well, every hookup that I brought home or around him. I was happy to get Missy and Sheila’s numbers and that there might be a way to parlay myself into a threesome. But I was already thinki

Chapter 5 - Xenia

I know I’d said I would give the owner of that corgi a piece of my mind. But staring up at this giant man who looks like he’s carved of marble - I felt those muscles only moments ago, and the marble may be an accurate description - I was at a loss for words. How much time does he spend in the gym? Or is this not natural, and it’s all steroids? If it is steroids, do I even want to accept that offer of dinner or the use of his laundry? My eyes glanced at his crotch. I couldn’t help it, and don’t judge me. You’d have done the same. Looking down at his crotch is less of a strain on my neck than looking up at his face. Either he’s one of those men that stuffs for show, or that’s the real deal outlined in those jeans. So much for my thought that his muscles are steroids. “You realize the longer you gawk at him, the bigger he’s going to get.” He chuckled that deep masculine kind of chuckle that sent a shiver down my spine, not in a bad way. My eyes quickly cut back to his face, and gree

Chapter 6 - Clay

Maybe today can recover and be a great day. Sure my phone is probably a bust, and I’ll have to replace it before I can get in touch with Missy and Sheila to apologize for leaving them hanging and maybe make it up to them. But that’s a worry for later. All my thoughts are now centralized on Xenia’s sexy, legging-clad ass. I’ve never had trouble getting women out of their clothes and into bed. At least not till Zeus came along. But I have high hopes this time. Meeting her was entirely his fault, and he seemed sweet on her dog. Dog aims high. Tinkerbell is a foot taller than him. No clue how he plans to tap that unless she lays flat on the ground or he uses the steps that Reese bought him to get on the furniture. But if he’s busy trying to get close to her dog, that means he isn’t going to interfere should things go well between Xenia and me. I was kicking off my wet shoes when she mentioned why I wouldn’t want to bring a woman here. I grimaced. “I told you this isn’t my place,” I ad

Chapter 7 - Xenia

I have to be out of my damn mind. I came home with a stranger. Every warning my parents uttered was repeated like a loudspeaker in my mind as I stripped out of my wet running clothes in this fancy half bath. This half bath was bigger than my three-fourth bathroom with higher-end materials, not to mention connected to the rest of the apartment. Holy shit, his foyer is bigger than my apartment. “Focus, Xenia.” I scolded myself. “You are in a strange guy’s apartment. An apartment he claims is his lesbian or maybe bisexual cousin’s place.” I rolled my eyes. I don’t know if I buy all that. It feels too convenient. Am I acting like some naive fool to want to believe it? I’ve been fooled before and don’t want that to happen again. I think the only reason I want to believe him, besides that body I’d like to climb like a tree, is that he's so forthcoming. He didn’t have to think about how to answer questions. And usually, if someone is lying, they have to think about it unless it’s a well-pra

Chapter 8 - Clay

Shit, this is going all kinds of wrong. And I can’t even blame Zeus. He was on the couch the whole time. So it’s my damn fault that I stepped on the excess fabric of the robe. It’s my fault we fell, but at least I was smooth enough to turn us, so I hit the floor. It hurts like fucking hell. Hardwood is not a forgiving place to land. I’m not going to let her know how bad it fucking hurt. I’m trying to maintain what’s left of my chewed-up man card. Besides, it's not like I’ve never fallen before. Shit happens on construction sites, no matter how careful you are. The difference is that I have a hard hat on, and the only people who would see me fall and possibly mock me are my coworkers and not the half-naked woman I’m looking to fuck. For a moment after I fell, I thought I saw stars. Then I realized I was, except they weren’t like the cartoon stars. No, it was the blue galaxy print of Xenia’s bra and underwear. So not a cartoon or real stars but something much better. Stars on the fabri

Chapter 9 - Xenia

Seriously, what the hell was that? We go from a bit of back and forth to a hot as fuck kiss to this? I am not this clumsy and not strong enough to pull a sink faucet off. So what gives? I don’t usually believe in superstitions, but that’s the second time in the last hour that something had happened when things heated up between us. And the third time we’ve landed on our asses, or he landed on his ass, I landed on him. I need to listen to the Universe and get as far away from this man as possible. The damage escalates each time we get close. I’ve got this bad feeling that if it got to us, one of us would end up in the hospital. And I do not want that on my hands. So despite that brief kiss blowing all my past kisses out of the water, I’m getting the fuck out of here ASAP.

Chapter 10 - Clay

“Fuck!” I shouted, slamming my fist against the wall by the elevator. Makayla’s neighbor Mrs. Pederson-Morgan-Slaugh poked her head out. She’s a three-times divorced socialite that according to Makayla, didn’t like her because she thought she was too poor for the building. The opinion only changed when her parents visited, and she realized Makayla’s dad was in politics. Then she suddenly wanted to be friendly with Makayla. Makayla wasn’t about that shit, especially when she realized the old bitch was angling to try and get between her parents. Not like that shit would happen. Josalyn is way too much like her mother for that. This means she’s a blunt bitch when the situation calls for it and sometimes when it doesn’t. Which is where Makayla inherited her personality. “Back in your hole Mrs. PMS. I told you when he moved in to stay out of my cousin’s business, especially his pants. That hasn’t changed.” Makayla dismissed our neighbor, waving her hand as she walked over to me. “Come o
