Who is That Kind of Girl?
She’s struggling to raise two kids, nurture a marriage, and manage a demanding career.
Will she sacrifice herself to keep everyone she loves happy?
Doctor Opal Collins is anxious and overwhelmed. So when her husband threatens to leave her
unless she finds the time to add a baby to the chaos, she digs deep to impress her boss and earn a
sanity-saving promotion. And though she’s excited by the spark between them, she knows she
should be offended when her boss suggests she trade her body for the job.
Thrilled when she earns the coveted position after setting boundaries in their scandalous affair,
Opal’s complicated dual relationships have her humming with tension. But with the tangled web
of deceit and affection already woven, she fears there’s no way out without betraying her vow to
do no harm.
Has her people-pleasing persona destroyed her dreams, or can she cling to a vestige of self?

laugh-out-loud humor, and beautifully crafted prose, then you’ll adore Jacey Bici’s unexpectedly
sweet journey.
