My family hired her to design our outfits, but I want more. In fact, I'd much rather see us together… without clothes and in my bed. The only problem is… I'm a prince and she doesn't know. Too bad we already made out at the club. When she walks into my room, she'll find out just how hard I can be. And how hard I'll fight to win her over…

If you aren't helping catapult my family's vineyard to success, you're in my way.

To make matters worse, he's the newly appointed vice principal for the school where I teach drama, which makes him my boss. That probably means he won't want to make out in the prop room anymore.

Spencer Crane thinks I’m a human tornado. I think he’s a calendar app come to life. While he schedules? I spin-out. When I spontaneously combust? He overcompensates.

I only wish I hadn’t discovered Mr. Clark Kent Glasses is (secretly) scorchingly hot. Even worse, he’s funny and chivalrous, and shoving me straight out of my Tess the Mess comfort zone.
