The first time he looked at her he felt everything will burn. ／ Anaïs Nin
Tom Kaulitz, infamous Los Angeles playboy and next in line for the Kaulitz fortune, lives a life of opulence and excess. His days are a blur of fast cars, even faster women, and the kind of parties that make headlines. But beneath the veneer of his cold exterior, it's a monotonous cycle of careless indulgence and hollow victories.
The kind of rich and reckless that gets people talking, Tom has a penchant for trouble and everybody knows it. But when he walks into a notorious strip club along Sunset Boulevard, he meets his match in Poppy Lovell—a wild, quick-witted redhead with sticky fingers and a strong disdain for guys like Tom.
The morning after a private dance that leaves Tom wanting more, he wakes up to find his luxury watch gone and his suspicion falls on the redhead from the night before. Driven by blind rage and a severely bruised ego, he goes back that next night to confront Poppy, expecting to intimidate her into submission. But she's not giving in—she's batting her lashes and swearing she's clean, leaving Tom both furious and fascinated at the same time.
Despite his anger, Tom finds himself drawn to Poppy like a moth to a flame, compelling him to return night after night under the pretence of reclaiming his stolen property and making her pay. Each encounter with Poppy peels back a layer of Tom's carefully constructed facade, revealing a battle between his desire for control and the unexpected feelings she stirs within him.
Can a guy who's never played for keeps really switch up his game for a girl who might just be the biggest gamble of his life?
