Samantha Tomlinson is content. She got a recent promotion and can easily find someone to warm her bed for a night, or maybe two if they're worthwhile. Love and relationships aren't on her radar, especially when she knows from experience that those things never work out.

For Ash Walker, love isn't in the cards either, but for entirely different reasons. They have a super-demanding boss, who just so happens to be Sam's best friend. They also refuse to give their heart to just anyone. And they don't do flings. Ever.

When a chance run-in at a bar ends in a bet for a date, Sam and Ash have differing expectations. Sam hopes the date will end with some fun in bed while Ash hopes this could be their chance for something more with the person they've had a crush on for years. Instead, the night ends with an agreement to be friends. But friendship and obvious attraction to each other don't usually mix well. Will it lead to an inevitable night of passion, only for Sam to cut and run? Or can Sam find a way to trust Ash and herself to break the pattern and build something lasting?

In Breaking the Pattern, get to know two supporting characters from Kate Gavin's award-winning novel, Table for Two.
