Lucy returns home with her young son after struggling to make it on her own, leaning on her brother as she rebuilds her life. Her growing attraction to Cooper, her brother’s best friend, brings a new complication: Drew has warned her away from him, while Lucy’s own impression of Cooper runs counter to that warning. The romance brings together single parenthood, family support, and the question of whether following the rules is always the right choice. This expanded edition also includes a previously unseen chapter.

Book overview

From the New York Times bestselling author of Practice Makes Perfect comes an expanded edition of The Off-Limits Rule--a heartwarming romance about new love and fresh beginnings, with a never-before-seen chapter.

Rules are made to be broken--especially for love, right?

Lucy Marshall has hit rock bottom. After failing to succeed as a single mom in Atlanta, she's back home and moving in with her older brother, Drew. Reconnecting with her support system is the right thing to do, but Lucy can't help but feel like a failure. Her four-year-old son deserves the world, and all she can give him is a spare bedroom. But Drew is the sweetest uncle, and some quality time might be exactly what they both need to start fresh. That is until she meets Cooper, her brother's incredibly hot best friend.

When Drew senses something between the two of them, he puts his foot down on any shenanigans. According to him, Cooper is everything Lucy should stay away from: flirtatious, adventurous, and especially noncommittal. But Lucy has been getting the opposite impression so far; Cooper is a genuinely great guy, and she's starting to catch real feelings.

Her whole life, Lucy has tried to do everything right, and look where that's gotten her--so what if she were to try something wrong?
