Just for Show

Only in my world does the family screwup have a rap sheet and three Oscars. And only a screwup like me would be nuts enough to fall for a cop. Not just any cop. Amy's our police chief in this tiny town that doubles as my family's social experiment and reality show. That's some serious conflict of interest, so why can't I stay away? It shouldn't matter, since Amy slams the cell door shut anytime we're close. I've heard rumblings of a brother behind bars, so she hardly needs my baggage. Thing is, I've changed. Forget how my family hovers like I'm poised to flop face-first off the wagon. I'm doing great, and I plan to prove it to Amy. But while my goofy jokes make her smile, I can't convince her I've got more to offer than belly laughs and chemistry so hot it might be illegal. The harder I try to show I'm a new man, the surer I am Chief Lovelin locked up my heart and chucked the key.
