title: One Week with the Marine
author: Gatta, Allison
description: Best friends with benefits...
  Avery Forrester has never been the type to settle down -- not to one place, not to one job, and certainly not to one man. Still, when her long-term best friend with benefits comes home on leave with a plan -- including marriage and children -- she realizes she'll have to do something drastic in order to keep him. Luckily, drastic is what she does best.
  
  ...isn't enough anymore.
  U.S. Marine Holden Morris has never backed down from a challenge. And this time, that challenge is persuading wild child Avery Forrester, the woman he's loved his entire life, to marry him. He wants the whole deal -- a wife, a family. But convincing her to become a military wife won't be easy. Then again, he knows Avery -- in every way possible. Armed with that kind of knowledge -- carnal and otherwise -- how can he possibly fail?
