Challenged By You (Wilder Horizons): A Spicy Rivals to Lovers, Forced Proximity, Contemporary Romantic Comedy (Wilder Horizons Series)

There are two problems with competing against Jerrick Thorne. First—he plays to win. Second—so do I.
Now we’re locked in a high-stakes tango on a Costa Rican billion-dollar pitch panel—and losing isn’t an option.

Brynn Wilder knows adventure. As a Wilder Horizons co-owner, she can sell billionaires on anything from luxury African safaris to sustainably built eco-lodges in the wilds of Patagonia. But when she’s paired with the company’s oldest rival for a high-profile pitch-off, she’s got one goal—wipe the smug grin off Jerrick Thorne’s infuriatingly handsome face.

Jerrick Thorne is precision personified—polished, disciplined, and irritatingly perfect, with enough scars and secrets in his past to keep Brynn guessing. Brynn? She’s a walking curveball, fueled by charm, chaos, and inconvenient impulses. He lives for order. She thrives in the unpredictable. And with every volley of banter, the tension between them gets hotter… and a whole lot harder to ignore.

Challenged By You is a sexy, rivals-to-lovers romantic comedy with whip-smart banter, forced proximity, and enough slow-burn tension to leave you begging for the final slide. Perfect for readers who crave serious heat, razor-sharp wit, and characters who know exactly what it takes to win—especially when it comes to each other.
