Art Finkle is a broke college dropout making espresso for people who don't know his name. Oscar Paris is the ruthless billionaire CEO who owns half the city. When Art accidentally ruins Oscar's bespoke suit, he expects to be fired. He doesn't expect a car at his curb the next morning.
What starts as an impossible opportunity quickly becomes something neither of them can explain, or even walk away from. But with enemies closing in from every direction, the real question isn't whether they belong together. It's whether they'll survive long enough to find out.
