She's always seen love as an obstacle to what she wants. How long can she deny that it's exactly what she needs?

Amaya Simmons is climbing the corporate ladder one determined step at a time. Career goals? Crushing it. Finding love? Hard pass.

When Amaya earns a huge promotion, she's elated. When she's assigned a temporary consultant to help with data analytics, she's annoyed. When she discovers who that consultant is, she's horrified.

Not only is Miguel Alvarez her best friend's brother-in-law, he's also the only man who has ever tempted her to give love a shot-before she shut off her heart and doubled down on never.

As they collaborate at work, Amaya finds herself wishing Miguel's presence wasn't temporary. But that feeling is precisely the distraction she's convinced will hinder her career.

Can the encouragement of her faith and her friends drown out the voices of doubt? Or will Amaya push love away permanently?

Love and Other Distractions is a contemporary best friend's brother-in-law, workplace romance. Readers who appreciate sweet romances, relatable characters with depth and growth, and light faith themes will love this story. You'll find plenty of swoon with no spice in this closed-door, kisses-only romance.

This is the third book in the interconnected Love and Other. . . series, following Love and Other Goals and Love and Other Chances. While written as a standalone, reading the books in order will provide the best reader experience.
