Work brought them together, love kept them intertwined. A slow burn romance about finding love in unexpected places. Four years after unimaginable tragedy, Agathe Santos knows that hope is for losers and so is love. Work has become her greatest escape. CEO Luke Tindall wants a wife, a family, a love that will last. He might have hired Agathe to save his company and deal with his goofy brother, but from the very first meeting, he has desired far more than her sharp wit and tireless work ethic. If only her past wasn't such a big secret. If only that secret wasn't a wound she didn't want healed. But even as Agathe can no longer deny her feelings for Luke, love is not something she thinks she deserves.
