Abs you can admire. A smile you can't resist. A man who makes you rethink everything.
I'm Tess, and I write romance novels for a living—which is ironic, because my love life is a solid one-star review. My laptop is my soulmate. My idea of a hot Friday night involves plot twists and wine stains. After enough loss, I've learned that keeping my world small keeps it safe.
Then Alex Bishop walks into my life like the hero I'd write if I were feeling dangerous. He's a political podcaster with a wicked sense of humor and the kind of work ethic that rivals mine. We're both so devoted to our careers that dating feels like cheating on our day jobs. We agree on one perfect night, no strings, no encores.
Except he keeps booking flights. Soon we're stealing weekends between deadlines and falling harder than any characters I've ever created. He's my instalove. My exception.
But I've spent years building walls around a life that can't hurt me. Can a romance writer who's survived too much loss risk her heart on her own happily ever after?
No cheating (except on our jobs). All feels. A love worth the leap.
