She's the boss. In every way that matters.
Veronica Knight built her empire from the ground up - ruthless, brilliant, and untouchable. As CEO of her own company, she doesn't have time for distractions, relationships, or anyone who can't keep up. Love? Not on her schedule. Feelings? She buries them deeper than her competition.
Enter Lucas: charming, sharp-witted, and freshly hired as her new assistant.
He's everything she never asked for - and everything she didn't know she needed. He's drawn to her fire, her power, her unapologetic dominance. And he's not afraid to challenge her... or chase her.
She's used to being in control. He's not used to taking orders.
But opposites don't just attract - they combust.
In a world where she's the one calling the shots, can Veronica risk losing control to a man who might just be her match?

Noah (5th Street series)
Veronica Cruz has been through hell and back. After disconnecting with the world two years ago to be at the side of her dying mother, she's left alone, unemployed, overweight, and feeling a decade older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend coaxes her into joining the local gym to ditch her depression and rejuvenate her life, she meets Noah. Assigned to help Veronica lose weight, Noah is everything she expected a young trainer to be-perfectly chiseled, supportive and motivating. Add to that, he's incredibly sexy. He's everything she's ever looked for in a man. What she least expected was for him to fall for her, but he has. There's just one glaring problem: Noah is eight years younger. Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title-someday. Down for a few months with an injury, his maintenance-boy pay at 5th Street Gym won't cut it. He's finally given the opportunity to train. The catch? His trainee is an out-of-shape woman with a free week pass. Taking on the challenge, Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships he's ever known, and before he knows it, he's in love. But Veronica's not having it-the age difference is too much. Their platonic relationship means having to watch her date other men-something that would make him crazy. Believing he's the man for her, Noah sets out to prove that age is but an illusion, and there's more to him than just a number.
