Hate to Lose You — Lily Ryan

Some call me cocky. Others arrogant. I prefer to go by Mr. Fix it. I've been around the block enough to know that happily ever is as fictional as fairy tales. I choose to live in the real world where love equals heartache and the word monogamy doesn't pass my lips unless it's a punch line in a joke. My life consists of a revolving door of women that come through one, two, sometimes three at a time. I'm perfectly happy with meaningless sexual encounters, as long as we both have fun and emotions are nonexistent. Until I meet Sophia. Sitting at a bar with her friends, I pick up on her sad, forced smiles. The moment our eyes meet I know she needs a visit from Mr. Fix it. I can distract her from whatever's troubling her. As I get to know the smart, sexy blonde I find a flaw in my plan. She's not the one that's broken. I am.
