About this book

Two ambitious lawyers who've spent eight years actively avoiding each other are forced to work together on a major case—and suddenly all those years of tension start sizzling into something neither of them can ignore. Payton's a fierce feminist who's clawed her way up in a male-dominated firm, while J.D.'s a privileged, cocky guy who's mastered the art of getting under her skin. But when partnership is dangled in front of them and only one can have it, their newfound chemistry becomes a dangerous distraction in a high-stakes game where the stakes are both professional and deeply personal. This is a deliciously fun battle of wills between two people who are way too smart to fall for each other—and way too into each other to stop.

Witty banter meets simmering tension. Pop and indie tracks with confident energy—think Ariana Grande, The 1975, Lizzo. Sharp percussion, playful hooks, and sultry undertones. Building chemistry, workplace ambition, stolen glances. Flirty, competitive, undeniably magnetic.
