"A fizzy, fun, and full-of-heart romcom." --Booklist

Some people search their whole lives to find love. He just wants to avoid it.

Teddy Spenser spends his days selling design ideas to higher-ups, living or dying on each new pitch. Stodgy engineer types like Romeo Blue, his nemesis--if you can call someone who barely talks to you a nemesis--are a necessary evil. A cute necessary evil.

Working together is bad enough, but when their boss puts them both on a new high-stakes project, "working together" suddenly means:

• sitting uncomfortably close on the same plane
• staying in the same hotel room--with only one bed
• spending every waking minute together.

Turns out Mr. Starched Shirt has some hidden depths, and it's getting harder to ignore the spark Teddy feels with every brush of their hands, with every knowing glance. He might not have been looking for this connection with Romeo, but will he ever be ready to let him go?
