In a high-stakes game of love, attraction, and desire, two people playing for all the wrong reasons are about to discover how delicious it can be when plans go deliciously awry and love is all that matters.

Like father, like daughter.

That's what businessman Alex Trahern thinks about Isabel Harrison. If the prestigious headhunter thinks she can steal his top employee, just like her father stole his dad's ideas, she's dead wrong. Alex is always a man with a plan, and his plan is to get revenge on John Harrison through his daughter. But there's no contingency plan for the impact Isabel's sparkling green eyes and honey brown hair have on the decidedly non-business side of his brain…

If at first you don't succeed, change the game.

After some relationship flameouts, Isabel's decided to leave love out of it and approach her search for a husband like finding a suitable job candidate. And according to her list of requirements, Alex Trahern certainly has potential. He's sexy. (Check.) Forceful and fascinating. (Check, check.) Also arrogant, obnoxious, and way too hot for her own good. (Erase. Start over.) Now, if only she could find out what he's really after…

All in all it was a good book and I enjoyed it. It was a light read and the hero was an ultimate alpha male. I just couldn't help but roll my eyes at how naive, sweet, and innocent the heroine was! So forgiving! I was numb with disbelief at how patient she was. How understanding! My tooth hurt at how sweet she was. She forgave all his transgressions right away! Ugh I wished she bashed him over the head. I enjoy a good fight between heros and heroines.

All in all still a good read!

This is the first book I have read by Ms. Monroe and I thought it was very enjoyable. I was a bit surprised that others here rated it so low. I suppose I can see how some people might find Alex too overbearing, but I love a good alpha hero and he's the perfect example of one. And Isabel is a sweet heroine that the reader can identify with. If you are a fan of hot love scenes and attraction at first sight, then I would say this is the book for you.
