Abbi lets out a snort of laughter. “Subtle, Westie.”
“I know, right?”
She gives me a kiss on the jaw. Then she pulls something out of her purse—a greeting card, with WESTIE on the envelope, and a drawing of a West Highland Terrier. “This is for you.”
“Aw! Thanks.” I slit the envelope with my thumb and pull out the card. On the front there’s a cat in a turkey costume. Inside, I find twenty-five dollars in cash. And Abbi has written only: TOTALLY WORTH IT.
“Oh baby!” I say, laughing. “I love you so much. You’re hilarious.” Then I have to kiss her.
And we’re still there, entangled in each other, until my dad taps on the window. “Did you know you’re steaming up the car?” he yells through the glass.
Abbi, embarrassed, quickly opens her door and climbs out.
When I follow her a moment later, my dad is laughing at us. “You know, your brother used to have this dumb idea that you two were only pretending to date.”
“Is that so?” I ask, unbothered, while Abbi makes herself very busy pulling her duffel bag out of the back.
“Yeah.” Dad shakes his head. “Love that kid, but sometimes he’s a dingus.”
“Total dingus, I agree.”
Abbi gives me a wide-eyed stare. And I just wink back at her.

BLONDE DATE
A NOVELLA
A blind date. A nervous sorority girl. A mean-spirited fraternity prank. What could go wrong?
As a sorority pledge, there are commandments that Katie Vickery must live by. One: Thou shalt not show up for the Christmas party without a date. Two: The guy shall be an athlete, preferably an upperclassman.
Unfortunately, Katie just broke up with her jerkface football player boyfriend. She'd rather hide under the bed than attend a party where he'll be.
Yet staying home would mean letting him win.
Andrew Baschnagel is living proof that nice guys don't finish first. He's had his eye on Katie since the moment her long legs waltzed into his art history class. So when her roommate sets Andy up to be Katie's date, he'd be crazy to say no.
And maybe he can prove to her that not all guys are like her ex…
PART ONE
CHAPTER 1
ANDY
With a growing sense of panic, I pawed through the clothes in my narrow little dorm room closet. For five long minutes I’d stood there inspecting my shirts, tossing them one by one on the bed. That was four more minutes than I’d usually spend trying to decide what to wear. But I still didn’t have a freaking clue.
It was time to call in the big guns.
Luckily, my older sister answered on the first ring. “I need a consult,” I said. Delia was in med school, and you got further with her if you spoke in medical terms.
