It's like The Office, if everyone was slightly worse.
At Lumina PR, the lights are bright, the coffee is burnt, and the employees are all professional gaslighters just trying to survive another "team bonding" exercise.
In this workplace comedy, truth is optional, accountability is a myth, and self-awareness was fired years ago.

Not Today Kael
Kael Adler is a man who has traded shadows and secrets for spreadsheets and stock options. As the newly minted CEO of Zameen, Doha's most formidable private equity firm, he's got a point to prove. He's sharp, he's stoic, and he's used to getting his way. Enter Sophia Burç. Zameen's brilliant, beautiful, and terrifyingly sarcastic CFO. Returning from sabbatical, she takes one look at the new boss-the nepotism hire with a mysterious past and zero private equity experience-and decides he's a disaster in a designer suit. She's not impressed by his quiet authority, and she's definitely not buying the whole "strong, silent type" act. He has the authority. She has the audacity. What begins as a clash of wills over leveraged buyouts and EBITDA multiples quickly descends into an all-out office war. The battleground is the boardroom, the weapons are savage sarcasm, and the casualties are their colleagues' abilities to keep a straight face. But between the fiery arguments and elaborate pranks, a different kind of spark begins to fly. In a world of high-stakes takeovers, and the dark shadows corporate vulture, they might just find that the most valuable asset they could ever acquire is each other. The only question is: who will surrender first? . . . "This is a sequel to "Spotlight Serenade" (A Performance of a Lifetime) but is written as a complete standalone.

NOTE: THIS IS A SEQUEL TO EYES ON US STORY! PLEASE READ BOOK ONE FIRST BEFORE READING THIS ONE. STORY ARE FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 𝗘𝗬𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗢𝗡 𝗨𝗦... It's easy to love someone when things are perfect and everything's wonderful. But, to love someone when things are difficult, when they're not being perfect, when they're messing up, flaws are seen, mistakes are made...that's what really allow you to see how much love there is really. Anyone can love someone who doing and saying all the right things, being everything you want and need, when they're got it all together and it all figured it out. But, to love someone at their lowest, to love someone despite how broken they feel, when they're lost, when you're willing to stand by them no matter how challenging or difficult things may be, that kind of love is a lot more beautiful. That kind of love is a lot more meaningful. Thank you for loving me both times when things are good and bad, up and down. Thank you for taking in every aspect and part of me, accepting my flaws, forgiving my mistakes and helping me become the best version of me. 06/26/2021-02/19/2022 Rankings: #181 in black 9/16/2021 #2 in blackcharacters 9/16/2021 #570 in urban 9/16/2021 #20 in urbannovel 9/16/2021 #3 in blackstory 9/16/2021Complete
