Rose in Bloom — Andrea Edwards

For orderly Rose Landen, work belonged in the department store, play stayed on the soccer field, and love...well, love remained in a box labeled Empty. Someday a man might fit one of her niches, but he wouldn't be devil-may-care landscape architect Rick Weiller.

Brawny, bearded and windblown, Rick had zero respect or propriety. He didn't even own a tie! So when his casual intimacies thoroughly rattled Rose's control, she struggled to keep their involvement purely physical. But Rick refused to package passion, forcing her to choose all or nothing, lonely order or blissful chaos.
