Amara Malhotra, a vibrant 23-year-old fresh out of college, was on the cusp of living her dream. She had just landed a coveted position at *Caricia*, the most prestigious advertising agency in Asia. Blessed with a life many could only envy-supportive family, loyal friends, financial security, beauty, intelligence, and even fleeting romances-Amara had always been the epitome of grace and charm. Yet, there was one thing she yearned to achieve: success earned through her own determination and hard work. She was driven, relentless, and ready to take on the world.
Enter Jeremiah McCoy, the heir to a sprawling business empire and the very picture of charisma and refinement. Though the world often assumed him to be the archetype of privilege-a spoiled, arrogant playboy-Jeremiah defied every expectation. He was kind-hearted, fiercely passionate about his work, and unafraid to wear his emotions on his sleeve. His authenticity and depth set him apart, making him a rare gem in a sea of superficiality.
This isn't a tale of opposites attracting but rather one of two like-minded souls discovering each other. It's a story of growth, where Amara and Jeremiah inspire, challenge, and uplift one another. Together, they navigate life's complexities, learning to balance ambition, relationships, and the ever-looming expectations of those around them. Their journey is one of mutual respect, understanding, and learning to love-not despite their similarities, but because of them.
This is a celebration of love in its purest form-a tale untainted by toxic clichés or overdone melodrama. It's a story for anyone who believes in the beauty of connection, where love is built on equality, kindness, and shared dreams. It's a gentle reminder that epic love stories don't need arrogant jerks or mafia tropes to be extraordinary. Sometimes, the most remarkable love stories are the ones rooted in simplicity, sincerity, and the magic of two hearts finding their rhythm together.

Book 1 of The Work Series
***
Two rivaling company presidents are forced to work alongside each other when their CEOs decide to merge companies. While it's a business move that makes sense given the flailing economy, Lucas and Talia would rather be broke and jobless than be in the same room as each other for more than five minutes.
Yet when the coveted CEO position is up for grabs, and the possibility of getting to oversee the other person is thrown into the mix, it's hard not to resist diving right in. Talia worked hard for a shot at the top and she isn't about to let some narcissistic jerk ruin her chances of reaching it. Despite some hiccups in her past, she's determined to do whatever it takes to get there. Likewise, Lucas isn't going to let some smart mouthed woman get the better of him. He has a reputation to uphold and is never one to back down from a challenge.
While life is about sacrifices, Talia and Lucas soon realize they may be in for more than they bargained for. Especially when the long days and late nights working together threaten to put not only their careers on the line, but their hearts too.
