Two Can Play

About this book

Viola Bowen has finally landed the professional opportunity of a lifetime: designing a video game based on her absolute favorite book series. There is only one major catch—her co-lead is Jesse Andrews, the man she considers her ultimate archnemesis. For years, Jesse has made his icy disdain for Viola clear, leaving her baffled and bitter about his constant hostility. When their bosses mandate a snowy, remote mountain retreat for team-building, Viola is horrified. Forced into close quarters with the one man she can’t stand, she prepares for a miserable trip. However, as the temperatures drop and the isolation sets in, the forced proximity begins to thaw the tension between them. Utilizing the classic enemies-to-lovers trope, this spicy novella explores what happens when two rivals are stripped of their professional armor. As the snow piles up outside, Viola discovers that Jesse’s cold exterior might be hiding a much warmer reality. With sharp banter and palpable chemistry, *Two Can Play* is a high-stakes, gaming-centered romance that proves that sometimes, the most intense battles lead to the most unexpected connections.
