Martin isn’t willing to be the kind of ‘player’ her boss wants her to

If a day can go from bad to worse, it does for Abbey. She runs into Bruce Harrington on her way home—literally.
Bruce
Harrington was on his way to a very important meeting. That was until a
raving lunatic with brown, bouncy hair spiraled towards him in her car

him cascading over the side of the embankment—he wasn’t in his car.
To make amends for causing Bruce to break a leg, Abbey becomes his chauffeur and helpmate until he recovers.
When
his cast is about to come off he has to face losing Abbey. There has to
be some way he can keep her from walking out of his life forever. If a
job offer won’t do it then perhaps it’s time for a proposal.
