When elite public relations strategist Isla Ryder accepts a career-defining opportunity to rebrand Hollywood's most notorious bad boy, Roman Lysander, she expects a challenge—but not the earth-shattering chemistry that ignites between them from the beginning.

Isla has built her reputation on control, strategy, and keeping her distance. Roman has perfected the art of living up to his scandalous reputation while hiding his true self behind the glittering façade. But when their professional arrangement becomes intensely personal, both discover that some connections cannot be managed or manufactured.

With a multi-million-dollar film project hanging in the balance, powerful Hollywood dynasties at war, and secrets that could destroy everything they've worked for, Isla and Roman must decide if what's burning between them is worth risking their carefully constructed worlds. Because in a city built on illusions, the most dangerous gamble isn't with their careers—it's with their hearts.

"Sometimes the best strategy is simply telling the truth. But in Hollywood, the truth can be the most dangerous weapon of all."
