J.B. Hammock lives by one cardinal rule: never get tied down. He keeps his relationships casual and detached, exactly how he likes it. But Tellie Maddox refuses to follow his script. She flutters around him constantly, trying to care for him whether he wants it or not. Her devotion makes this confirmed bachelor consider desperate measures to keep his distance. Then fate intervenes. Tellie suffers memory loss and believes she's simply J.B.'s loyal companion. Even a heartbreaker like J.B. can't abandon her in this vulnerable state. He agrees to play along as her friend. But pretending creates something real between them, something deeper than J.B. ever planned to feel. The bachelor finds himself completely caught. When Tellie's memory returns, everything changes again.
