Genre: Romance
All Quinn Dorsey wants is a white picket fence fairy tale. But after another failed relationship, and her biological clock ticking double time, she's decided happily-ever-after isn't in the Tarot cards. Forget Cupid, it's time to take matters into her own hands. A simple seduction should do the trick, but then everything that can go wrong...does!
Dak Savage isn't interested in commitment. He's been burned by women before - lied to, used, even shot. Hell, he considers women a curse and has one rule he never breaks - don't pick up women in bars. But when he agrees to a guys' night out and meets up with feisty, fast talking Quinn, his rule shatters like a dropped shot glass.
A one night stand turns into a long weekend and as Quinn tries to abandon her ridiculous scheme, she finds herself nose-to-nose and toe-to-toe with the best mistake she's ever made.

Two Wrongs Make a Right- Ann Everett
Quinn Dorsey, a newspaper reporter, is a few months shy of her thirty-fifth birthday and ready to get married to her boyfriend Brad. After 3 years of dating she expected a ring....what she got was a break up. Her two best friends Megan and Raynie convince her that she was too good for Brad and better off without him. "He's a dick. A dick brain. A brainless dick."
Dak Savage, age 38 is a serial dater who's never been in love and wondered if he was "so shallow that he couldn't invest enough in a relationship to let it develop beyond casual."
When Quinn puts in motion a crazy plan with the help of her friends to seduce one of Megan's co-workers and get herself pregnant, she heads to a bar with a fake name (Molly) and back story and puts her plan in motion.
A mix up in the bar brings Dax and Quinn face to face..or rather mouth to mouth and the chemistry is instant sending Dax's heart into palpitations. No one had ever affected him that way before. Determined to keep her for a little while he convinces her (with his mouth) to spend the weekend with him.
When Quinn leaves after their weekend without saying goodbye Dak is hurt and searches for "Molly". Months later Dak discovers the extent of Quinn's lies and the little secret she's been keeping and the chance of a happily ever after seems to not be in the cards for them.
Despite his anger Dak needs something from Quinn too. His job is in jeopardy and their predicament gives him the perfect excuse to give each of them what they need.
This was a great story and a very different one. While Quinn's actions were questionable her motivations were pure. I rooted for this couple the whole way through.
The secondary characters were excellent. Megan, Raynie and Dak's sister Sim were all instrumental in getting and keeping Dak and Quinn's love on track.
This was a new author for me and I look forward to more from Ann Everett.
4 stars
Ann Everett embraces her small town upbringing and thinks Texans are some of the funniest people on earth. When speaking to writing groups, businesses, book clubs, and non-profit organizations, she incorporates her special brand of wit, making her programs on marketing, self-publishing, and the benefits of laughter, informative and fun.
An award winning and Amazon best-selling author, when she’s not writing, she spends her days listening in on people’s conversations at the local Wal-Mart and numerous other gathering spots. She draws from that research to pen her romance and mystery books, full of southern sass, sizzle, and Texas twang.
Ten things you won’t know about Ann by reading her bio:
She’s been married to the same man since dirt, but introduces him as her “current”
husband.
She loves shopping at thrift stores, because nobody loves a bargain more than she does.
She doesn’t remember her first kiss. Maybe hypnosis would help.
She hates talking on the telephone…so don’t call.
A really sharp pencil makes her happy…part of her OCD.
She secretly wants to get a tattoo. Shh…don’t tell anyone.
A charter member of National Honor Society in high school remains one of her proudest moments. Still can’t
figure out how that happened.
She’s thankful wrinkles aren’t painful.
She sucks at math.
