Synopsis

How did I find myself sharing a tent with my obnoxious—albeit gorgeous—neighbor, Isabella Romero? It all started with a stupid bet.

All I had to do in order to win was something unpredictable. (Which my brother thought was impossible for the ever-boring David Windell).

Well, I showed him . . . by booking a trek in the Andes Mountains to see Machu Picchu.

When the brochure for the expedition mysteriously appeared on my front porch, it was like fate interceded: I could win the bet while simultaneously getting a vacation from my irritating neighbor.

Two birds, one stone.

Except, it turns out that was Isabella's brochure . . . and she booked the same trip.

So here I am, stuck sharing a tent with the woman who drives me crazy—and makes my heart race like never before.

About Leah Brunner

Leah Brunner is a Kansas girl at heart, but currently resides in Northern California, with her husband and three children. (At least until the Air Force moves them again).

She loves writing witty banter, quirky heroines, and sweet happy endings.

As a child she was told that she lived in her own little world and was oblivious to reality. The normal world seemed way too boring to Leah, and not much changed as she became an adult. Writing is one way she enjoys sharing her little world with others.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Steam Level: 🔥 (kissing only) David Windell and Isabella Romero have barely tolerated being neighbors. He's Type A and has his life perfectly organized, while she prefers adventure and flexibility. And they both love pushing each other's buttons. When they accidentally sign up for the sam......more

(4.5 stars) - From prank war to want more! Really entertaining, though I couldn't help cringing at how wrong a few of those pranks would be in real life. Fiendishly clever though, lol. I love David & Isabella's amusing journey of learning to recognize their complimentarity - they're opposites who le......more
