In the fast-paced world of New York City tech startups, success is everything-and no one knows that better than Samantha Perez. As the founder of ClickCloud, she's built her company on quick thinking and cutting corners, always focused on the next big win. But when her biggest rival, the maddeningly meticulous Liam Donovan, enters the race for the same high-profile investor, Samantha's game plan is turned upside down.
Liam's approach to business is everything Samantha despises-slow, methodical, and annoyingly successful. With each encounter, their rivalry escalates from boardroom battles to personal vendettas, filled with heated exchanges and undeniable tension. But the more Samantha tries to outsmart him, the harder it is to ignore the sparks that fly every time they clash.
As their competition grows more intense, so does the unexpected attraction between them. Torn between her drive for success and the emotions Liam stirs up, Samantha is forced to confront the cracks in her shortcut-driven life. Can she learn that sometimes the hardest things-like falling in love-are worth the fight? Or will her fear of vulnerability cost her both the deal of a lifetime and the man who challenges her in ways she never saw coming?
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
