Summary
Dylan likes to know exactly where things are going. With her career, her family, her relationship, and, well, everything else. From spreadsheets to themed Pinterest boards, she's meticulously planned out every aspect of her life for as long as she can remember.
Max, meanwhile, always lives in the moment. The world's too full of beautiful places - and beautiful people - to let yourself be tied down. Besides, he's learnt the hard way that no future is ever guaranteed.
So when Dylan's broken up with she's left reeling, with no concrete plans for the first time in her life. Perhaps that's why she finds herself agreeing to a totally off-piste proposition - share a cabin for the summer with her friend's brother during his all-expenses-paid travel influencer trip to the pristine Welsh coast.
It's not like six weeks is long enough to throw your entire life off course or anything. Right?

No one is doing it like Georgia Stone. (Kelly L. Clarke)
Banter, heat, and a pressure-cooker roommate situation - The Roommate Rule is a delicious opposites-attract romance that balances playful tension with real emotional depth. I devoured it. (Ki Stephens)
A yearningly perfect ode to love and life. Beyond brilliant in its gentle tenderness, The Roommate Rule makes you think about all the big questions, all eventually boiling down to one: how to be happy in face of a multitude of what-ifs.
