“I don’t trust my instincts around the man behind the wheel. He’s too good-looking. Too confident. Too everything I’ve always tried to avoid in a man”
“He’s perfection. Everything about him is, from his looks to his singing and the way he carries himself.”

The guy I just met at the mansion I inherited from a complete stranger?
He’s drop-dead gorgeous. Sexy. And rude with a Capital R.
Turns out he’s not the hot gardener as I wrongly assumed.
He’s not only a famous rockstar who grew up in the house, he’s also ready to fight for it. And being both hot-headed and Irish, he’s going to fight hard and dirty.
I’m not moving out. Full Stop.
But neither is he.
So we agree on some simple rules.
We’ll play roommates for a while.
What could possibly go wrong?
Living together with an Irish Hothead will surely cause a major storm. Let’s hope bracing that storm won’t turn into a hurricane.
Author’s note – This is a romance book with a storyline that doesn’t fit into one single book. It is book one in a duet, so beware of the cliff. If you can’t handle cliffhangers, stop at the end of chapter 25 and let it be your temporary HEA.

My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
