title: The Company of Fools
author: Hartnett, A.M.
description: Kate Doucette’s trying to get her life together. She’s working full time at Mike MacNab’s bar, going to school, and she just kicked out her Do-Nothing boyfriend. Things are looking up, but with the construction going on in the bar, her money troubles looming over her, and her personal life in the toilet, Kate’s on a ledge and Mike is there to talk her down. One night, she wants more than a pep talk: Kate asks her charming and handsome boss to spend a weekend in bed with her.
  What could be a bigger stress-reliever than two days of bedroom Olympics with a guy who’s as hot for her as she is for him? The only problem is that he wants more than a weekend, and it seems like he wants to fix her life for her. She adores Mike, but the last thing she needs is another headache.
