Spurned by her first love, Beatrice swears off men and marriage, until Benedict walks back into her life…A charming new take on Much Ado About Nothing.

When her rich and titled family tries to force the witty Beatrice to accept a betrothed, she holds fast to her vow. But when her heartstrings are tugged once more, two years later, she has trouble resisting the man who started it all.

Benedict may have been poor before, but now he’s gained wealth and renown for prowess both on the battlefield and in the bedroom. The two reunite in a series of hot skirmishes, wielding words like fencing foils. But can they drop their defenses long enough to realize their love burns as bright as ever—or will their desires be doomed to the past?

“I love the idea of taking Shakespeare's plays and rewriting them from the heroine’s point of view. Brilliant.”—Jessie Gussman, author of Anything for You
