If The Shoe Fits (Some Girls Do It Book 8)

Helen Franklin abhors the idea of asking for help more than almost anything else. However, when her roommate inadvertently sets their apartment ablaze, she has no choice but to accept her successful younger sister's offer to stay at her place until she gets back on her feet.

When the Carters host a lavish charity event, Helen plans to make a brief appearance before retreating to her assigned room. However, a captivating, alluring stranger has other intentions. It was meant to be a fleeting tryst, a one-time encounter. She never expected to cross paths with him again. Their worlds couldn't be more disparate.

But Cade Lawson is a man who relentlessly pursues what he desires. And he has set his sights on Helen.

As the evening unfolds, their paths inevitably intertwine. Cade is instantly captivated by Helen's beauty and intrigued by her aloof demeanor. He senses a vulnerability beneath her guarded exterior, a longing for connection that she steadfastly conceals. Determined to breach her defenses, he engages her in conversation, his magnetic charm and smoldering gaze proving irresistible.

Initially, Helen is taken aback by Cade's bold advances, unaccustomed to such overt attention. Yet, despite her better judgment, she finds herself drawn to his confident, alluring presence. As they engage in witty banter, a spark ignites between them, smoldering beneath the surface.

Cade skillfully navigates the social event, skillfully maneuvering Helen away from prying eyes. In a secluded alcove, their intense attraction culminates in a passionate, furtive encounter - a brief, delirious moment of surrender to their primal desires.

Afterward, Helen is wracked with conflicting emotions. She berates herself for her moment of weakness, convinced that this can be nothing more than a fleeting dalliance. Yet, she cannot deny the lingering effect Cade has had on her, the way he has stirred feelings she long thought buried.

Cade, on the other hand, is unwilling to let Helen slip away. He is captivated, his interest piqued, and he is determined to pursue her, undaunted by the challenges their vastly different worlds may present. For when Cade Lawson sets his sights on a prize, he plays to win, no matter the cost.

As Helen grapples with the aftermath of their encounter, she finds herself increasingly drawn into Cade's orbit, their paths converging in unexpected ways. The tension between them builds, igniting a fire that neither can extinguish. It is clear that their lives are on a collision course, and the outcome remains uncertain.
