Is she falling for the wrong man again?
Caleb Taggert is exactly what recent divorcée Beck Magruder needs—intelligent, handsome and blissfully uninterested in anything long-term. Her first date with Caleb does not disappoint. Yet after a night of passion, Beck realizes she’s looking for more than just a fling. Saying goodbye to an almost perfect man isn’t easy.
Luckily Caleb offers Beck a deal: no-strings-attached fun, plus free advice for online dating. It’s the perfect arrangement, until Beck falls for Caleb. Suddenly, no other man can compete. What started as a fling has the potential to become something more. But is Beck ready to bet her future on it?
JENNIFER LOHMANN is a Rocky Mountain girl at heart, having grown up in southern Idaho and Salt Lake City. When she’s not writing or talking with librarians around the country about reading, she cooks and laughs with her own personal Viking. Together, they wrangle three cats. (The boa constrictor is better behaved.) She currently lives in Durham, North Carolina.

“I’d like to make a proposal,” Caleb said.
He took her raised eyebrow as an invitation to continue. “I like you, Beck. You like me. And you want more sex in your life.”
“Yeah, but not willy-nilly.”
“Nothing I’m proposing is willy-nilly. I’d like to offer you companionship, conversation and sex while you look for the man you want to marry. Or until our relationship has burned its course.”
“A little man on the side.”
“Little? Come on.” He tried to act insulted, but the way her hand came up to her mouth in embarrassment was too cute not to laugh.
“But the on-the-side part is right?”
“I guess, yes. You are free to date other people. I’m free to date other people.”
“So why would we be dating each other?”
“Because we like each other. And because you probably need time to kiss a few frogs before you settle on your prince.”
Like Dating by Numbers, this book emerged out of my own forays into online dating. I...well, I wasn’t good at it. I met the Viking, fell in love and got married, so I was successful, but “good at it” seemed to mean I went on a lot of dates (I didn’t) and knew what I wanted out of the experience (I didn’t). You think, Everyone is telling me to do X, so I’m going to do it. But X isn’t you, and you can’t fight you. Enter Beck. Happily married when you first meet her in Dating by Numbers and on her way to divorce at the end. Confused, frustrated and scared by the entire experience—but determined.
From stage left comes Caleb, who claims to know what he wants and what he’s doing.
