After the Party

Talia isn't looking for a relationship-she's barely looking up from her romance books.
But one Friday morning in NYC, she meets him.
Malachi Rios. Quiet. Sharp. A little dangerous. A lot unforgettable.

After one electric conversation, she thinks she'll never see him again...
until he walks into her workplace the next week as her new boss.

Suddenly:
• flirty texts turn into silence
• lingering stares turn into tension
• and Talia is trying very hard not to fall for the one man she absolutely shouldn't want.

But when an apartment disaster leaves her homeless for a while, she ends up on Kai's doorstep, staying in his guest room "just for a night."
One night becomes a week.
Late-night cooking becomes shared secrets.
And almost-kisses become impossible to ignore.

And when Kai invites her as his fake date to a wedding overseas-because he may or may not have lied to his family-
their slow burn gets hotter than they ever expected.
