Monopoly (n.) 1) the exclusive possession, control, or exercise of something. 2) a classic board game with all the answers to Harper Sloane's problems.

If Harper Sloane has learned anything, it's that you can't throw money at a problem. So, when she learns her cozy game store, Love & Games, is struggling, she ditches her pride and rolls up her sleeves to enter the city's high-stakes Monopoly tournament .

Declan Wilde is a handsome, new-in-town doctor looking to set his karma straight. When he pays for Harper's coffee, she's horrified. She quickly repays her debt—with interest—to prove she doesn't need his charity. But when Declan turns up at Love & Games to enter the tournament, refusing his business isn't an option.

Now, Harper and Declan are stuck together, battling for prize money—and ignoring the slow-burn chemistry brewing between turns. Forced to see each other at every practice, the tension starts to feel like a challenge beyond the game board. As they go over strategies for play, is their rivalry still just enemies playing games, or has it turned into something more?

Monopolove is a funny, feel-good romance filled with board game banter, grumpy/sunshine tension, and found-family charm—perfect for fans of Ali Hazelwood and Tessa Bailey.
