HE’S GOT SOMETHING SHE WANTS
When Katie McKnight gets lost location-scouting for her father’s TV studio, she stumbles upon
the perfect setting for their angsty new teen vampire series—a remote barn house unfortunately
occupied by a grouchy, disheveled, and incredibly sexy man who instantly mistakes her for the
new nanny. Should Katie tell him the truth, or get her foot in the door?
SHE’S GOT EVERYTHING HE NEEDS

Excerpt
“Hey, there. You ain’t from around here, are ya’? I’m Clancy Perry.” Clancy stuck his
hand out and Vance immediately hated the glint in his eyes.
“Katie McKnight.” She shook Clancy’s hand.
“You from Hollywood?”
“Santa Monica, technically––”
“Well, Katie McKnight…I’m your man.” Clancy ambled closer to Katie, blocking Vance
with his back. “And I’d like to audition for any and all love scenes. Especially if I get to make love
to Carrie Underwood or Brooklyn Decker.”
“Oh, well––” Her unease was visible as she glanced at Vance.
“You don’t have to pay me or nothing. I’d do it for free. As long as the actress is smokin’
hot.” Clancy inched closer to Katie.
“Welcome to Harmony,” Vance said to Katie’s surprised or alarmed face (either would be
fitting). He clapped Clancy on the shoulder over his worn Skoal T-shirt. “Look, go tell everyone
not to stop by because there’s not going to be any movie. Got it?”
“That ain’t what I heard––”
“You’re hearing it now.” Clancy got that belligerent look on his face and was about to say
something really stupid when Katie hooked her arm through his and steered him toward the
door.
“Mr. Perry, as soon as Mr. Kerner and I have ironed out all the details, I will personally
let you know if there any parts in the miniseries suited for you,” she said to a goofy-smiling
Clancy. “Thank you for stopping by and informing me of your availability.”
Clancy shuffled his dirty cowboy boots on the wood floor. “Sure thang. Maybe you and
me can talk over beers”––he made a suggestive leer with his tobacco-stained teeth–– “You ever
ridden on the back of an ATV––”
“She’s not available.” Vance cut in as he tried shoving Clancy out the door.
“How do you know?” Clancy dug his booted heels in, halting Vance from slamming the
door in his face. “You ain’t her boyfriend, you douche bag.”
“Yes, I am. Now get the hell out of here,” he snarled in Clancy’s stupefied face. “And
make sure you tell your brother Clinton, too.” Vance slammed the door so hard it rattled the
frame.
Katie stood with crossed arms. Pointing a finger at her disapproving face, he said, “Don’t
give me that look. I did you a huge favor. Clancy and his brother Clinton are two characters you
want to avoid. They don’t run on all four cylinders. They trim trees for a living and have fallen out
of more than I can count, which explains the brain damage.”
Katie took an aggressive step forward. “I don’t care about Clancy. You promised to listen
to my proposal with an open mind. And now you’re saying no before I’ve had a chance to
explain.” A wrinkle creased her brow directly below her widow’s peak. “And I’m not your
girlfriend, you…you butthurt!”
Unable to form a coherent thought, his pulse quickened as he stared at Katie’s flustered
face and heaving chest beneath her oversized sweatshirt. “Did you just call me butthurt?”
“Yeah. And I meant it.” Katie whirled around and stormed away. “I’m outta here. But I’m
coming back tomorrow to present my proposal and you’re gonna listen.”
  
Bestselling author Vance Kerner doesn’t just have writer’s block—he’s been run ragged ever
since he was saddled with taking care of his brother’s three kids, an adopted kitten, and a
runaway mutt. The last thing he needs is a teen drama defiling his property, but with fascinating
and unconventional Katie underfoot charming the entire Kerner household, Vance is finding it
harder and harder to say no. Katie agrees to babysit, if Vance allows the film crew access to his property. Vance agrees to keep an open mind for the peace he needs to write.
But having Katie underfoot is anything but peaceful. And Vance is finding less and less time to
write and more and more time to watch Katie weave a lovely spell on all the Kerners...especially
him.
 
Can these two opposites find a common ground and the love they both deserve?
