When Ami convinces Elliot to make Cassie her personal doctor, their worlds collide. One innocent comment sparks a dangerous game: Cassie claims Elliot isn't romantic. Elliot challenges her to prove him wrong-by teaching him every romantic trick in the book.
The rules? He must go on dates, use Cassie's lessons, and see if he actually falls for one of the women. If he does, he'll change his cold, arrogant ways.
But Elliot never planned on falling for any of them.
His only goal? Make Cassie fall for him instead.
