The Final Score After the explosive tension of book one, Graham and Emery are back—and this time, the stakes feel even higher. When a fake dating arrangement becomes their solution to a very real problem, these two discover that the chemistry that's been simmering between them might be impossible to fake after all. As real feelings threaten to complicate their carefully constructed plan, they'll have to decide whether the biggest risk is playing it safe or going all in. Perfect for readers who love watching enemies transform into lovers through witty banter, genuine connection, and the kind of swoon that makes you believe in second chances.

Tension-filled indie rock and sultry R&B that captures forced proximity turning to undeniable desire. Think The 1975, SZA, and boygenius—electric chemistry, unresolved longing, and the moment fake becomes dangerously real. Confident, charged, unapologetically sensual.
