Devin Baez is ready for a relaxing winter break at Lake Andreas. That is, until he runs into his obnoxious next-door neighbors the Seo-Cookes, undefeated champions of the lake's annual Winter Games. After the Baezes offer up their cabin to their rivals in a reckless bet to finally take them down, more than just family pride is on the line.

So when annoyingly handsome Julian Seo-Cooke finds himself in need of a fake boyfriend, Devin sees an opportunity to get behind enemy lines and snoop for proof that Julian and his family have been playing dirty for years.

As long as Devin and Julian's families are at war, there's no room for anything but loathing between them. Which is a problem because, for Devin, this faux game of love is beginning to feel a little too real.
