The Husband Checklist

There are moments when you think life is going one way then a major curveball sends you in the complete opposite direction.
That’s me, standing in the rain, wondering how things went so terribly wrong. 
What do I need? To hide at my brother’s house to lick my wounds.
What do I get? My brother’s roommate, sexy-as-sin best friend, Carter Kennedy: the cute, adventurous boy who was my teenage crush and the inspiring, irresistible man who will never be mine. 
Then things get complicated with fun-filled days and pleasure-filled nights. If Carter wasn’t the most commitment-phobic person I know, I could consider the cliché of dating my brother’s best friend. But he will never fit the husband checklist I made to find the man who will be my world, and I’m not willing to compromise on that. 
At least, that’s the plan.
