It's love at first sight for Blaine Everett, and he'll let nothing stop him from marrying Beth. It's obvious she likes him, so why does she keep turning him down? Instead, he begins a relentless pursuit of her by promoting her to his executive assistant at Starling Productions and moving into an apartment close by.

Beth Romano has had enough bad relationships to last a lifetime, so when her handsome billionaire boss takes a liking to her, she'd rather run than get involved. Before she knows what's happening, Blaine moves into the apartment across the hall and he's telling everyone they are engaged.

With Beth fighting tooth and nail to remain coolly aloof, Blaine's only options are deceit and trickery. Aided by two matchmaking friends and a wily cat named Houdini, Blaine puts a plan in motion to woo the woman of his dreams, using every dirty trick in the book.
