Give Me Your Reason

She's got her rules and he's determined to break every single one of them.

This new romance novel by Holly Mortimer explores love after divorce, women in powerful careers and how having it all doesn't always look like what you thought it would.

I became the Chief Creative Officer of a successful movie studio because of my strict adherence to my self-imposed rules:

But when playboy actor Rhett Montgomery messes up his career enough to warrant going into hiding, I somehow find myself playing the role of his publicist-appointed babysitter.

And of course, he's more charming, more sexy and more intelligent than I'd remembered and it had been a long time since someone had looked at me the way he did.

But I'm older than him, divorced with four kids, and entirely too career-driven for Rhett to seriously be interested in me, right?

Besides, if I want to stay at the top of my game, the rules must remain firmly intact, which means Rhett must stay firmly in the friend zone...despite how sexy his smile is.

But he seems determined to prove to me that he's more than just a pretty face and that my rules are only holding me back from living my best life.

Can he convince me that I can have both the career I've worked so hard for and the love that I crave? Or will I sabotage any chance I might have for true happiness?
