Finnley Sheffield has always been a bit of a wild card — the life of the party, you might say — and it’s finally starting to catch up to him.

Instead, she offers the one person who can handle the project — Michaela, who just so happens to be his best friend’s annoying little sister. Neither is happy with the idea, but they know working together is the only way to get what they want. Now that they’re forced to spend time together, the lines are starting to blur. Michaela realizes that maybe he isn’t as much of a passive-aggressive, narcissistic a-hole as she thought. Finn finds out that she isn’t the same clingy, annoying little kid she used to be. They’re both discovering that maybe they don’t hate each other as much as they thought… Or maybe it’s all just part of a game. STRICTLY BUSINESS is a contemporary, enemies-to-lovers romance. It is the second book in the Strangers series.
