Girl's Guide to Hunting & Kissing: an opposites attract beach romance

An ambiance coordinator for Club Paradise’s extravagant settings, Summer Farnsworth prides herself on taking the road less traveled when it comes to her career, her astrological predictions, and her men. She knows immediately, therefore, that a pragmatic assistant district attorney like Jackson Taggart—a Taurus, of all things-- is completely wrong for her. Since she doesn’t own enough crystals to ward off the man’s major magnetism, however, maybe a simple, no-strings fling would fulfill her penchant for passion.

Yet Jackson knows he’s in way over his head when her sexy dare is all he can think about...
