Lee Stone is a twenty-first-century woman: she kicks butt at her job as a communications director at a women-run electric car company (that΄s better than Tesla, thank you), and after work she is ΄Stoner΄, drinking guys under the table and never letting any of them get too comfortable in her bed...

That΄s because Lee΄s learned one big lesson: never trust love. Four major heartbreaks set her straight, particularly grad-school boyfriend Ben Laderman-who wasn΄t actually cheating, but she could have sworn he was, so she reciprocated in kind.

Then Ben shows up five years later as a policy expert for the Texas governor, just as Lee is trying to get a clean-energy bill rolling. Tension builds as old sparks reignite when they΄re forced to work together, fanning the flames for a romantic dustup the size of Texas.
