ABOUT THE BOOK:
For Rose Marie Jones, risks are a hard no, except for game night. For one precious evening a week, Rose can forget about her demanding boss and her lacklustre love life and focus on beating the pants off her friends.
But none of them brings out her hyper-competitive side quite like William Ashdern.
Her best friend’s half-brother, William is the paragon of a sexy nerd. The tall, dorky and handsome game designer is Rose’s playing nemesis.
However, when Rose decides to enter a contest with the board game she’s secretly invented, there’s only one person who can help her win.
What has always been a game between Rose and William is becoming a lot more serious. After spending her entire life trying not to lose, Rose might finally be ready to risk it all, and play to win.
