...........................................

Ever since a disastrous high-school break-up, Lana Parker has bounced from one long-term relationship to the next - she even works as a dating and relationship columnist. So, when Lana suddenly finds herself single, she''s ready for a break, personally and professionally.

But then her high-school ex, Seth Carson, takes an assignment at Lana''s website. Having spent years travelling the world as a freelance journalist, Seth''s finally ready to put down roots, even if it means treading on some toes.

Pitted against each other for a shot at a dream job, Seth and Lara are each tasked with writing an article series that goes against their usual dating type: Lana will write about being - and staying - single, while Seth learns how to become boyfriend material.

With their careers on the line, Seth and Lana''s chemistry is just as combative - and undeniable - as ever. But when these two square off, it''s not only their careers on the line - it''s also their hearts.
