They'll never make it. Ren Kurosawa and Mikayla Davis will kill each other before Ren's latest film sees the light of day. He's sure of it. After Ren's previous assistant cracks under his demands, he begrudgingly accepts Mikayla as a replacement. Yet, the two have a history deeper than a fractious working relationship. For years, the two have been in each other's social orbits through acquaintances. However, their mutual contempt once boiled over in a kiss. One Ren tries to forget until Mikayla walks back into his life and quickly derails his passion project. Mikayla isn't happy about their circumstances either. The only reason she signed up to help was for the cash and a trip to Japan. She's determined to get through filming and then get out of Ren's life forever. Despite their efforts, the memory of their kiss lingers...until there is another kiss. And even more after that. The two soon find themselves enthralled in a passionate relationship. Nevertheless, the disdain remains because they both know they have nothing in common. Mikayla's all about fun and freedom and Ren only cares about box office dividends. So the two of them definitely won't make it. There's just no way.

In possibly one of the shortest self-help books on finding the right love partner, romance author Arabella Sheraton outlines a 10-step, foolproof plan for finding the person who is perfect for you. You don’t need a long drawn out explanation: Ms. Sheraton (with some pithy advice from Jane Austen) gets to the heart of the matter and show readers how finding love begins and ends with them. Arabella Sheraton spent many years writing freelance articles on any and every topic imaginable before she opened an upmarket, exclusive introduction agency. Her writing career now takes up most of her time, but being in the business of romance taught her an enormous amount about people, love, life, the ups and downs of romance, and the vagaries of the heart. This book on finding the love you desire and deserve is based on her experiences in helping people find the perfect partner for them. Arabella writes Regency romances and finds that although times change, people do not. In matters of love and happiness, men and women want the same thing and experience the same problems. Each chapter is prefaced by (and sprinkled with) an inspiring quote from one of Jane Austen’s timeless novels or from her own letters to friends and family. Jane Austen had an unerring eye for what made people tick, and her observations on life, relationships, love, and romance have endured.
