The Wilde brothers have spent the past few years reaping the rewards of their youth, good looks, and massive wealth. They can acquire whatever ‘toy’ or amusement they desire, and fly wherever they want, whenever they want, with practically whomever they want. Still, they want more—at least Alec, the eldest, does, and he has an idea how to get it. To alleviate their eventual boredom with the easy life, the brothers propose specific games—dares, chases, and challenges—to each other every year on their birthday. They’ve bedded supermodels, famous actresses and pop stars, but this year, Alec proposes they go after someone from their past—someone ‘normal’ yet elusive—and give them the time of their life. Brandon and Connor have to think hard about their prospects, but Alec knows exactly who he wants go after: Dahlia Bridges—a girl who has haunted him since their playground days. He thinks she could be the missing puzzle piece in his otherwise full, decadent life and he will do everything in his power to make her his. But how much will it take?

Brandon doesn’t have a care in the world. Luck has followed him and his twin brother, Connor, their whole lives—even landing them in the billionaire’s club—and the luck of genetics ensured him that, with or without money, he would always have women after him. But Brandon’s luck has just run out. He has agreed to the terms of an annual challenge with his brothers to conquer a woman from a chosen group, and in the process, suddenly finds himself facing a conundrum: while carrying out the dare with one woman, he realizes his feelings for a childhood friend, Erica, goes far beyond friendship—especially now that she’s getting married. Now, two gorgeous prizes are on the line, and it seems he can’t win one without losing the other. If he drops everything and goes after Erica, he loses the game. If he lets his fake relationship play out, he wins his older brother’s stunning Hawaiian beach house, but could lose Erica forever. Brandon is used to surfing along wherever life wants to take him, but will he finally interrupt the flow and take a necessary risk? Erica Cain once had a crush on Brandon Wilde as a silly teenager, but she eventually got over it; in fact, she’s glad it never worked out for them romantically once she sees what a vile boyfriend Brandon would have made as she watches him navigate life. She is convinced she has moved on from that schoolgirl crush, and finds herself a dedicated, stable man to settle down with. But now Brandon’s blue eyes are looking at her in a way they never have, and it is stirring up feelings she has long buried. She can’t let Brandon crash into her life and wash away her plans, but how long can she resist Brandon’s heated baby blues?

Connor Wilde has been on quite a ride. Only twenty-four, a lifetime of craziness has happened to him, and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down. He feels destined to live life in the extreme, so he expects nothing more than drama when the latest annual game he plays with his brothers requires that he revisits part of his crazy past. He feels compelled to face Gabriela Miller again—a girl whose heart he crushed back in high school, and who would probably slap him silly if she ever saw him again. But Connor feels a pull to her he can’t deny. Besides, what he did to her—that was so long ago; she couldn’t possibly still be holding a grudge, right? Connor realizes he is usually a force of destruction, but he straps himself in for the ride, hoping that, instead of inflicting more damage, he can repair some part of their connection instead. To Gabriela Miller, Connor Wilde is like fire itself: entrancing and dangerous. She has been burned by Connor before, and how many times does one need to stick one’s hand in a fire to realize the damage it can cause? When Connor pops up in her life again, she knows he is up to no good; at the very least, smoke is on the horizon, whether he means to start a fire or not. But the thing about fire is that sometimes, it has to take its course, no matter how much water you try to douse it with. Gabriela plans to fight Connor off for as long as she can, but if he finds his way in again, will she be left in ruins, like before?
