When they ask for advice, because that’s just something they all want from the master mixologist pouring their drinks, the main thing I tell women is this: be yourself.
After all, don’t you want a guy or gal to love you for you?
That’s what I have with my man. Jason loves all my quirks, all my insanity, and everything that makes me . . . me.
That’s the coolest thing. Because when you find the person who’s your perfect match, you also find you’re not so inclined to spend all hours curled up with a computer or a spreadsheet.
But my husband?
Oh yes. I like spending my nights with him, and my mornings too. Especially when we’re making pancakes.
I might be referring to the song.
It might also be a euphemism for something else we do a lot of.
After all, we’re still madly in love, and this kind of love is the ultimate instant gratification.

PART-TIME LOVER
ABOUT
It was only supposed to be a marriage of convenience...
Let me just say, this whole part-time lover thing was her idea. I’d have gone all-in from the start, but hey, when a gorgeous, brilliant woman invites you into her bed, and only her bed…well, I said yes.
But then, one hysterical phone call from my brother later, begging me to find myself a wife so grandfather’s business stays in the family, and I need a promotion with Elise. Turns out a full-time husband suits her needs too, and a temporary marriage of convenience ought to do the trick, until we can simply untie the knot…
As long as no one finds out…
As long as no one gets hurt…
As long as no one falls in love…
But our ending was one I never saw coming.

Something about the last night in a foreign city makes you want to do crazy things. You want to drink it all in and taste every single dish on the menu. After all, tomorrow you’ll be gone.
Left with only memories.
