JUST LIKE THE BOOKS

WHEN THE ONE-MAN WOMAN MEETS THE PLAYBOY.

---

In a town where mornings run on caffeine and people pretend they're fine, Lina Parker keeps her head down and her world small-quiet shifts, quiet thoughts, no complications.

Then Adrian Whitaker hires her.

He's everything she avoids-too observant, too confident, and entirely too comfortable stepping into her space like he belongs there. As the owner of the café, he should be just her boss.

He isn't.

Because Adrian doesn't just notice Lina-he studies her. Picks at her silence. Challenges her distance. And somehow, between late-night closings and crowded rush hours, he starts slipping past every wall she's ever built.

She doesn't trust him.
He doesn't back off.

And somewhere between irritation and something far more dangerous, the line between them begins to blur.

But Adrian Whitaker is not a man who does anything halfway-
and Lina Parker is not a girl who lets anyone get close without a cost.

He flirts like its a sport... and he's the champion.
And she argues like it's her dignity on line.

In a story of sharp edges, quiet confessions, and a tension that refuses to break-
sometimes the person who unsettles you the most... is the one you can't walk away from.
