The last thing Nic wants is to come between Will and his friends, which means there's one last challenge before she can fully claim her happily ever after: Kate.
While she was living in Ohio, they could all avoid whatever awkwardness might linger from Nic and Sully's brief fling over a year ago and the friendship that followed, but now that Kate's moving to Heron Lake to work for Will at Fowler's, Nic is determined to clear the air between them.
But there are more tensions between Sully, Kate, and Will than just Nic's own insertion into their long-established dynamic, and Kate has her own insecurities to face, now that she's back among her friends.
Taking place just a few months before the epilogue of Playing it Safe, Settling Up navigates the start of a new friendship between Nic and Kate, and revisits the relationships of both Will & Nic and Kate & Sully.
Fans of Christina Lauren's Wild Nights and Beautiful series and Cora Carmack's Rusk University will enjoy this return to the ultra-sexy contemporary romance series, Playing to Win.
