The Hating Game meets a much hotter Morning Glory—if the grumpy billionaire media exec was her brother's best friend, and this time they actually kissed.

Liam Lockhart avoids attachments, feelings, and anything he can't control—including me. He's a decade older, my brother's best friend, and so emotionally unavailable he might as well be a locked file marked Do Not Open. Two years ago, we kissed—hard, hot, unforgettable—until he shoved me away like I was a mistake he couldn't afford. So I did what any heartbroken writer would do: I turned him into the villain of my webcomic. Broody, smug, infuriating—and totally based on Liam. I thought I was subtle. I wasn't. Too bad he can't do anything about it. Now, thanks to a twist of fate (and my brother's injury), Liam's offering me the job of a lifetime: head writer on a hit show for his streaming platform. The catch? Working with him every day—while he pretends he hasn't bonded with the stray mutt now following him everywhere—and trying not to strangle (or kiss) each other. I should say no. I should remember how it felt when he ghosted me. But this is my dream job. Staying professional is the plan. Right up until his lips crash into mine again. We can keep it casual. We can keep it quiet. As long as my brother never finds out. As long as we don't catch feelings. As long as I don't do something truly stupid—like falling for my brother's best friend. Kissing Liam the first time was a mistake. Doing it again? A disaster waiting to happen.
