Zuma is a high level marketing executive. Intelligent, ambitious, and manipulative, she's powered her way up the corporate ladder and into a cozy corner office. Being the only black woman at her level at Shearing Wireless has its drawbacks, and Zuma's had to get her hands a little dirty to stay at the top. Suddenly, all of her hard work might now be in jeopardy, thanks to a company merger and a pesky intern named Iris Pena.
Iris is just trying to satisfy her internship requirement - or at least that's what she keeps telling herself. Beautiful, young, and vivacious, Iris manages to charm Shearing Wireless in ways that the stunning, yet cold, Zuma Harris could never hope. Juggling corporate espionage, a blooming love life, and issues with her increasingly handsome best friend are becoming more than she can handle. Does Iris have what it takes to go toe-to-toe with her conniving mentor? And will she be able to do it without breaking a few hearts on the way?
