At one of Manhattan's most elite consulting firms, Lena Rivera and Julian Vance are locked in a ruthless battle for dominance. She's fierce, brilliant, and tired of being underestimated. He's cold, calculating, and used to winning without question. Everyone in the office believes they despise each other-but I know better. I've seen the sparks that flare when no one is watching, the way a glance across the room says more than a hundred heated words.

When a high-stakes merger forces them into an uneasy partnership-and into the same luxurious penthouse suite-the friction turns dangerous. Late nights and whispered arguments blur the lines between rivalry and something far more volatile. Beneath every cutting remark hides a secret longing neither can admit.

But pride is a powerful enemy.

And love, even stronger.

As they fight to control their futures, will they also lose their hearts? Or is what I saw between them enough to change everything they thought they knew about winning-and about each other?
