Mia has spent six years building a successful career at Greystone Industries, thriving under the laid-back leadership of her former CEO. But when the company suddenly appoints Jason Whitmore as the new CEO, her world is turned upside down.
Jason is everything Mia despises-cold, demanding, and ruthlessly driven to make sweeping changes. As they clash over their differing visions for the company, sparks fly in ways neither of them anticipated.
What begins as a professional rivalry slowly transforms into something more complicated as they discover that beneath their mutual antagonism lies a simmering attraction. In this slow-burn, hate-to-love romance, Mia and Jason must navigate the tension between their personal and professional lives, learning that sometimes the person you least expect can become the one you need the most.
