A Winners Guide To Sabotage
Rose has had exactly enough of suitors, and even more of Kael — the insufferable strategist who somehow appears everywhere she turns. He critiques her romance novels for "anatomical inaccuracies." He weeds her garden while making pointed observations about her flushed cheeks. And with surgical precision, he takes apart every other suitor's credibility, one calculated move at a time.
Rose can't stand him. Or she thinks she can't — right up until she kisses him just to make him stop talking, and discovers she might actually want the maddening man who's been provoking her since day one.
What follows is a courtship neither of them will admit to: library confrontations, garden ambushes, a carriage ride that ends in a spite-kiss, and one very drunk night where Rose rates his "proportions" a confident ten out of ten. But the more she pushes back, the more Kael escalates — like he's not just flirting, but fighting for something. Like this was never a game to him at all.
A Winner's Guide to Sabotage is a hilarious, heartfelt enemies-to-lovers romp about falling for someone while insisting, loudly, that you're not — and discovering that the best victories are the ones where you surrender completely.
