I’ve simplified my life into a three-part process: I binge—I fuck—I come…until I come to my senses. That’s what my world has been ever since she came into my life. And I was perfectly content with it staying that way… Until I actually met her. Mouthy dancer. Blonde bombshell. Elena. My best friend’s soon to be sister-in-law. Enemies before we’d ever laid eyes on each other, we were a match made in Hell—a cautionary tale of how not to get along. But when the spark between us sets our passions ablaze, how do we prevent the unexpected matches from turning our flame into an inferno? \\\*AUTHOR'S NOTE: This volume contains graphic sexual themes and coarse language that may not be suitable for audiences under the age of 17. \\\This book is Round 1 of a Three-Round series.\\\ Round 2 begins December 1st.

My head says, “Fuck Lukas Griffin.” My clitoris says, “Go ahead!” I gave in to him, submitted myself to our fiery passion… and it blew up in my face. I can’t afford to do this again—not when he holds all the cards. Not when he makes all the rules. He’s lured me into a game—a game I’ve never played. A dangerous one. And if I raise the stakes and place another bet on him, will he burn me again?

Lukas Griffin I'd heard that chess was a game made for the Gods of Men. You are not a God… you’re just a man. But even you can make the rules… Rule no. 1: Trust no one. Not even the ones you like. Not even the ones you love. Especially not the ones you love. Rule no. 2: Do not fuck the irresistible blonde. Not even if she asks. Not even if she begs. And she just may… Rule no. 3: FUCK THE RULES. To Hell with them. Set fire to them and watch them burn… Realize that under the right circumstances, everyone is capable of betrayal. Even you…

As a partner in my own company, I put the “cock” in the word “cocky…amongst other things, of course. The only exception to this rule was her. \\\* When I built my publishing press and magazine Tripping Out! with my two best friends, I signed up for two business partners… Not three. But that’s exactly what I get when my closest friend decides to make me his best man. Three months. Two wedding rings. And one betrothal party to plan. With a person I hate. His soon-to-be sister-in-law, Elena. Enemies before we ever lay eyes on each other, I suddenly can’t wait for this engagement party to be over… and then I meet her. And suddenly figuring out china patterns isn’t my biggest problem… She is. Exploring my attraction to the beautiful blonde ballerina is forbidden, but I’m willing to take the bet. But when my gamble on Elena sucks me into a dangerous game, I have to figure out what’s worth losing more... My life… or her.
