But there's more to Seven and her romance than empty promises and overblown expectations, she'll prove it's real. She bets Blake she'll make him fall for her by using the rules in her latest novel before the end of the convention, or she’ll give up on love in front of her fellow authors and fans at the Romance Lovers Convention ball. She's all in and humiliating Blake is worth the risk.

But when Seven's the one being seduced, her rules no longer make sense, and realizes she's a fool for ever betting on love.

He’ll play dirty to protect his assets—but falling for the competition was never the plan.

Because life’s too short to be appropriate…

On the verge of losing the Malibu home she inherited from her great-aunt, spunky Addi Dekker is failing hard to show her family she can make it as a writer. If she doesn’t want to give up her dream and go back to the soul-sucking job she happily left behind, Addi has to swallow her dislike of Hollywood and rent her bungalow out to the sexy-as-hell film producer who stole from her.

But, she has a plan (shhhh!) she'll stay out of the camera's eye and keep living there, too. It was time for Tinseltown to pay up after what they did to her sister and her own dreams.

Roque Gallagher is pouring his heart and savings into his first independent film to make the industry acknowledge him for his talent and not just his family name. Addi’s home is perfect for the shoot, but she’s far too tempting. He’s never been able to handle work and a relationship, and this is the film of a lifetime. Between a shrinking budget and his director quitting, the last thing he needs is a sexy-as-sin tease like Addi, especially when he can't shake the feeling she's hiding something.
