South Bay 1: Arrived - Ashley Jacobs

He was a charming stranger.

A business trip hook-up.

Then, suddenly, my competition.

Parker Brooks. Gorgeous, confident, wildly successful. And the one thing standing in the way of my goal: landing the deal that would secure my hard-earned promotion and future.

I didn't care how good he looked in a suit. If achieving my dream meant going through Parker Brooks, so be it.

She was a southern spitfire.

The star of the hottest night of my life.

And my self-proclaimed rival.

Laura Beth Calhoun. A small-town transplant with enough confidence and sass to turn even my jaded head. And the first woman to make me question if love was more than just a story my grandfather told me.

I didn't care about the deal. Laura Beth was mine. She just needed to arrive at the same conclusion.
