The Plus One by MJ Duncan

The only thing worse than Eve Morrison’s parents’ annual holiday gala is attending the event solo, so when her plus-one for the event backs out at the last minute and offers up his cousin as a replacement, she doesn’t say no. She has every confidence the long weekend will be a disaster, but at least this way she’ll have someone who might support her through it all.
Aspen Collier-West is in the middle of her busy season as a charter pilot and doesn’t appreciate it when cousin calls in an old favor, but they both know she owes him and that she can’t tell him no. Even though standing in as the plus-one for his best friend for four and a half days will throw a colossal monkey wrench into her schedule.
Neither of them head into the long weekend thinking it’ll be anything special. Eve just wants to emerge in one piece, and Aspen is simply repaying a debt she owes. Their low expectations are yanked from under their feet the moment they meet, and suddenly the long weekend feels far too short for either of their liking. Will they find a way to make things work long-term, or is their whirlwind, storybook weekend destined to become nothing more than a fond memory?
