Synopsis: The New York Times bestselling author of The Billionaire and the Virgin returns with a tale of Shakespearean-style seduction...
Edie's an overbearing cat behaviorist who's not big on people. Magnus is a newly-rich game developer who likes to be in control. When the two of them meet at Gretchen and Hunter's masquerade engagement party, the loathing is mutual. Unfortunately for them—and everyone else—they're in the wedding party together and must deal with each other for the next few months.
But when Magnus's younger brother falls for Edie's sister, he begs for his brother's help in concocting a plan to win her over. If Magnus can keep the prickly Edie occupied, his brother will have time to woo Edie’s sister. Of course, Magnus isn't interested in the slightest, but Edie is...intriguing. And stubborn. And smart. And sexy. And they might have more in common than they thought.
Before long, it becomes a challenge between the two of them to see who will be tamed first. But how’s Edie going to react when she finds out that Magnus is using her? And how’s Magnus going to handle the fact that he’s fallen for a cat lady?
