Playing for Keeps

by R. L. Mathewson

First published 2011

Haley has spent years being everyone's doormat, but she's finally had enough. When her infuriating neighbor Jason ruins her flowers, she decides this is where she draws the line. Jason has always relied on his charm to smooth over his lack of self-control, so he never expected his quiet neighbor to unleash her fury on him over some damaged plants. Intrigued by this new side of Haley, he decides to bring her into his world and teach her his ways. But as Jason gets to know the real woman behind the shy exterior, he realizes she fits perfectly into his life. Haley isn't fooled by his sudden interest. She knows exactly what kind of man Jason is, and she has her own plan for dealing with him. The question becomes whether Jason can prove to her that his feelings are genuine, or if Haley will stick to her strategy and keep the bad boy next door at arm's length.
