He lives by a set of rules. She might be his one exception.
I just wanted a distraction, something to take the edge off before facing a wedding I was dreading. So on the flight back to New York, I signed up for a dating app. Harmless enough, right?
Wrong.
Turns out, it wasn’t just any app—it catered to people with very specific tastes. By the time I realized it, I was already on my date.
Tall, confident, and sinfully handsome, Jagger Langston seemed like the full package. The chemistry between us was instant—electric enough to burn the whole city down. Though things took a turn when we figured out I’d misunderstood who should join the app. We laughed it off, said goodbye, and went our separate ways.
Or so I thought.
Until I walked into my new internship Monday morning, ready to put the weekend behind me, and there he was—my boss.
Now I’m caught between the rules he lives by—and the temptation to make him break every single one of them.

MY REVIEW
Sutton has joined a dating app and is about to meet her match. Luckily for her, he's gorgeous and commanding. Unfortunately for her, it seems the dating app was for people with certain...proclivities. Proclivities that she doesn't share. All she wanted to do was have a little fun before the wedding of her ex and her stepsister. Yeah. Once she and her hot match realize they really aren't a match, they go their separate ways, never to see each other again. Until she meets her new boss/mentor at her new internship and he's yep, you guessed it - her match that wasn't meant to be. Jagger may have rules, but Sutton's about to make him break them, in all kinds of delicious, intense ways.
For two characters who definitely were not supposed to end up together, Sutton and Jagger ended up being absolutely perfect for each other. She was his exception and he fell hard even if he didn't admit it for the longest time. Not only did their chemistry and spice burn up my Kindle, they were fun and snarky, and Sutton's best friend Miles was hilarious! The kind of best friend we'd all be so lucky to have. Sutton the smart one with a bruised heart had no idea what she was in for when she matched with the dominant Jagger who had his own bruised heart - what a perfect combination!
