New neighbors Andi and Hayden don't get off to the best start - and neither do their dogs. When the hostility between their pets, Bart and Rosie, leads to noisy barking, Andi and Hayden must solve their pet's tension or risk eviction from their apartment complex.

***

Andi loves stability and has her whole life planned out for her. A lakeside apartment as she grows her career, a promotion at her interior design company, a work-oriented husband similar to her, and an eventual suburban house are all on the list. A potential eviction is not. To prevent a derailment to her plans (and prevent change, the one thing she hates), she must put up with her carefree, annoyingly hot neighbor as their dogs undergo "conflict resolution" at a pet-training facility an hour away.

Hayden lives his life day-to-day and hates committing to things permanently. With his pet photography business on the verge of expansion, he can't seem to come to a decision about what he wants with his life. However, what he knows for sure is that he doesn't want to be kicked out of the only pet-friendly lakeside apartment complex in town. To avoid eviction for him and Rosie, he joins his incredibly hot yet infuriatingly uptight neighbor as their dogs learn to play nice, and just maybe, they do too.

Little does she know what to expect as she looks into the shot man's piercing eyes for the first time. Will Olivia let the undeniable attraction between her and the mysterious stranger take control over her life?

Delena is determined to have a good time at summer camp and forget about her backstabbing ex-best-friend Mei. But when Mei shows up at camp too, suddenly revenge looks a lot more appealing than forgetting. * * * * * As far as 17-year-old Delena Torres is concerned, friendship is nothing more than a quick way to get hurt. This has been her mindset for the past two months anyway, ever since her best friend Mei ditched her and started hanging out with her arch enemy. She's more than ready to spend summer vacation alone-- then her parents surprise her by signing her up for a photography course at Camp Create It, the summer camp she and Mei always dreamed of attending. Still, even if she has to be surrounded by other campers, Del's determined not to get attached to anyone. She'll spend the summer by herself, honing her photography skills and forgetting about Mei. Easy, right? Maybe, if it wasn't for the fact that her quirky cabin-mate seems deadset on becoming friends. Or if she could stop running into the cute guy from the kitchen staff. Oh, and if she wasn't in the middle of a prank war after one stupid attempt at revenge, since Mei just happened to show up at camp, too. Yeah, this "lone wolf" thing might be harder than she thought.
