JEN

My high school best friend got impossibly hot and rich, but falling for him isn't on my spreadsheet.

And I’ve got a spreadsheet for everything. After my ‘perfect’ life implodes, I return home with a strict Plan B:

1. Fight Climate-Change

2. Stay Single

The problem? Patrick. He went from shy and lanky to a crypto-rich playboy with a stomach full of abs and a heart full of gold.

I join Patrick’s co-ed hockey league, and a friendly bet ends in a strip skate-off.

Suddenly, I have to decide between my sacred plans and this golden retriever with a dirty mouth.

PATRICK

I’ve been secretly in love with Jen for over ten years. Watching her choose my best friend and plan a life excluding me was devastating.

But then the game changed. She’s back, and she’s single.

Now, I just need to prove to her that Plan B was always supposed to be me.

The Player and The Planner is a steamy, swoony, friends-to-lovers romantic comedy featuring chaotic pet ferrets, screaming goats, and a blond-haired, blue-eyed golden retriever hero who fell first and fell hard.
