A five-day road trip, a tenacious hockey player, and a sharp-mouthed PR girl who hates his guts. When a photo of Rae and me goes viral for all the wrong reasons, I have no desire to pick up my phone and explain why I can’t uphold my politician family’s spotless reputation.

Hijacking Rae’s road trip sounds like the perfect break to escape the mess I made with one minor detail: we don't get along. The plan was to go off the grid for a couple of days, but spending five days arguing with a hardheaded blonde pushes my buttons in more ways than one.

Suddenly, I find her in my arms, and I can’t bring myself to let go, even though my family will never approve. It all started as a way to escape, but the quicker we get to the end of this road trip, the more I realize I can't say goodbye.

Choosing Rae will alter my own future, but I don't care until it turns out it will ruin family's chances too.
