Working It Out
A chance encounter . . .
Grace Warren's life is safe and predictable—exactly the way she likes it. But when she gets roped into going to an auction to help out a friend, everything changes. She meets Seth Tuttle—a guy who unexpectedly kisses her then disappears, leaving her flustered and upset. If she never sees him again, it will be too soon.
A chance for love . . .
Weeks later, when Seth limps into Grace's rehab clinic post surgery, she immediately recognizes him. Unfortunately, he's every bit as frustrating and annoying as she remembered. Yet there's something about him that makes her second-guess her carefully placed boundaries even though he's everything she's sure she doesn't want in a man. But maybe Seth is exactly what Grace has needed all along—assuming she's willing to risk safe and predictable for a chance at love.

Meet the Author
Rachael Anderson is the author of five novels (Working It Out, The
Reluctant Bachelorette, Minor Adjustments, Luck of the Draw, and
Divinely Designed) and two novellas (Twist of Fate, from the All I Want
anthology and The Meltdown Match from The Timeless Romance Anthology:
Summer Wedding Collection). She's the mother of four and is pretty good
at breaking up fights, or at least sending guilty parties to their
rooms. She can't sing, doesn't dance, and despises tragedies. But she
recently figured out how yeast works and can now make homemade bread,
which she is really good at eating.

Her eyes continued to search his face—well,
more like probe—as though she could see into his mind and thoughts. She held up
the brochure she carried, showing Seth the face of the bachelor he’d just bid
twenty grand for. He took it from her to get a closer look.
“What
do you plan to do about the incredibly expensive date you won?” she asked.
Seth
scanned through Cameron’s bio, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. He
returned the brochure back to her and tapped the page. “Experience an
unforgettable day of high adventure, apparently. Sorry if I, uh, took that away
from you.”
She
looked completely unfazed, as though this strange situation happened all the
time. “You know he’s not gay, right?”
“I
made that assumption, yes,” Seth said, wondering what was going through that
pretty head of hers. “Why? Are you hoping I’ll hand the date off to you since
I’m clearly not gay either?”
“Aren’t
you?”
The
way she said it made Seth’s jaw work back and forth. She looked so confident,
so unshakable, reminding him of someone who got under his skin on a regular
basis—Lanna. Except the two women looked nothing alike. Lanna was petite and
fair, whereas this woman was taller, with darker hair and a darker complexion.
But that expression—that impassivity—exactly the same. Maybe Lanna had given
her lessons.
Yet
for whatever reason, it bothered Seth that this woman might think he preferred
men to women. “No, I’m not.”
“Then
you won’t mind if I do borrow that date from you. I’m sure Cameron would prefer
me over you anyway.”
If
she didn’t look so sure of herself, Seth would have said, “Have it, it’s
yours.” But something in the way she said it made Seth bristle. “Yes, I would
mind, actually. I happen to like ziplining, parasailing, and . . .
romantic horseback rides.”
“And Cameron, apparently.”
Seth took a step forward, leaning close so
his eyes were only inches from hers. “Like I told you, I’m not gay.”
“Oh yeah? Prove it. Give me the da—”
Seth immediately dipped his head slightly and
covered her mouth with his. Her lips were warm and soft, and she smelled
faintly of citrus. For a second, it seemed like she responded, but then she
planted her palms against his chest and shoved him away.
