After accidentally deleting his research files, Mara finds herself forced to collaborate with him to salvage both their projects. Late nights in the lab, heated debates, and undeniable chemistry blur the line between rivalry and something far more dangerous.
As their professional and personal worlds collide, Mara must decide: is winning worth losing the one person who challenges her in every way that matters?
A witty, STEM-filled rivals-to-lovers romance about ambition, unexpected connections, and the messy equations of the heart.

Rivals. Lovers.
