    About this ebook

    A romance novella about turning a playboy into Prince Charming.

    When Tina met Reza in the bar at the film festival, she was mostly thinking about her Mai Tai.  After he kissed her, she couldn't think at all.  

    One impulsive encounter and two months later, he finally convinced her to go out to dinner. Then he had to convince her he could step up as an independent man. And after that, the only conclusion to be drawn was ... this is for real. While they work it out, they have to contend with paparazzi, Reza's parents, and Tina's insecurities.

    Two strong-willed creatives blend careers, families, and friends, trusting in a future they never imagined before.

    Adult situations, themes, and language; 23,000 words and a happy ending.
