LILY: Tall, dark and handsome. That’s what I think the first time I see Rupert Evans in the library. But then I find out he’s the developer who plans to raze my community garden for a cement towers monstrosity?
Heck no. But then he asks me out at book club night. Suspicious, right? I’m attractive but I’m not the type hot bachelors are lining up around the block to ask out. Let’s be real. I’m still in the “let’s have brunch” spot with my next-door neighbor after a year of my pursuing him.

RUPERT: She’s cute when she blushes. That’s what I think when Lily pops up from behind the library counter. And smart when she quizzes me about my favorite author’s books.
But then I find out she’s the co-head of the garden I plan to bulldoze. To be appointed Co-CEO of Strive Developers—my goal since college—I’m constructing a new apartment building there. Good-bye, Garden.
When she teases me at the book club, I wish . . . I can’t let her sparkling blue eyes or some green oasis stand in the way of achieving my dream career.

Lily: Good luck, Mr. Hot Shot Developer. Too bad he’s so cute. He has no idea what we’ve planned to stop him. Our little community group may look like a bunch of frail roses, but we’ve got thorns. As long as I weed out these pesky feelings for him, I know we can win. But what will I lose?
