**Spicy version**
He should be off limits, but he’s the best kind of trouble.
Briar My father gave me the family brewery as an early Christmas present. Generous, right?
Except every single person on staff just quit, and I only have a budget that’ll last through the end of the year. I need a miracle.
Lucky for me, my best friend Hannah’s big brother, Liam, is a genius brewer, and she convinces him to quit his job and come work for me. She only has one condition: I can never date him.
It’s an easy agreement to make. I’ve vowed to stay away from men after an embarrassing breakup, and I’d never get involved with someone who works for me.
Besides, Liam’s an amateur boxer and frankly a bit terrifying. Only…it turns out my best friend’s brooding, insanely talented big brother is the only man who’s ever really understood me.
Liam I promised my sister not to date any more of her friends, because the last time I tried, it ended badly. Very badly. I took this job thinking it wouldn’t be a problem to stay away from Briar.
She’s a daddy’s girl who looks like a princess and talks like a boarding school teacher. Not my type.
But the woman I wrote off knows a lot about beer, and she’s a whole lot tougher than I gave her credit for. I want to run this brewery with her…and I want her too.
To my complete shock, I’m falling hard for my boss, and if my sister finds out, there will be hell to pay…
