Kat has it all figured out: a rent-stabilized Brooklyn apartment, a clinically tight pussy, and a business built on knowing what men want. She's the witchy brunette you hooked up with in college and still think about. The downtown art girl you pay to look you in the eye.

Until she meets Logan. Masculine. Sexy. A boxer who understands women in ways other men never will.

The problem is Logan only wants to be friends. So Kat decides if she can't have him, she'll heal him. And what's more romantic than refusing to take no for an answer?
