Do you love listening to music while you read? We definite do! Sometime we'll turn on whatever we're into at the moment and sometimes we'll pick mood music. But, every now and again, an author puts together a playlist of songs they were listening to while writing the very book we're reading, which is really the best case scenario. Why wouldn't we want to get into the right musical mindset? Thankfully, Laurie Devore's made a playlist, just in time for us (and all of you!) to start reading her latest, Winner Take All.

Winner Take All by Laurie Devore

For Nell Becker, life is a competition she needs to win. 
For Jackson Hart, everyone is a pawn in his own game.
They both have everything to lose.

Nell wants to succeed at everything—school, sports, life. And victory is sweeter when it means Jackson Hart, the rich, privileged, undisputed king of Cedar Woods Prep Academy. Yet no matter how hard she tries, Jackson is somehow one step ahead. They're a match made in hell, but opposites do attract. 

Drawn to each other by their rivalry, Nell and Jackson fall into a whirlwind romance that consumes everything in their lives. But when a devastating secret exposes their relationship as just another game, how far will Nell go to win?

Visceral and whip-smart, Laurie Devore's Winner Take All paints an unflinching portrait of obsessive love, toxic competition, and the drive for perfection.
