I have one item on my agenda: start over. Not on the list? Falling for a tattooed former playboy with a mischievous smile and a shady past.

After moving across the country for yet another high-powered ad exec job, Danielle Wright is done dating—especially at work. Her disastrous former relationship scarred her for life, and with her overwhelming family responsibilities plus the demands of her job, the last thing she needs to worry about is a man. Armed with a no-nonsense attitude and a bun slicked back within an inch of its life, Danielle is determined to kick as much corporate ass as possible, with no distractions.

Jesse Adler is the hot creative director who’s just trying to be a better person, and he thinks part of that is making the new girl smile. Ok, maybe he wants to do a little more, like see what’s going on under her pencil skirt. But when the jokes turn from infuriating to fun, Danielle starts to think maybe she’s being too rigid about that pesky no-dating rule. When Jesse begins to melt Danielle's heart, there's enough heat to set both of them on fire.

While Danielle grapples with workplace harassment, Jesse tries to become the boyfriend type, and the two of them look for the meaning of family, Jesse has to confront his past. It might get steamy with these opposites who attract, but will they overcome the truth about Jesse?
