**Premise:**
At the cutthroat investment firm Quarrystone Capital, Thea Calloway and Reid Huxley are sworn enemies competing for the same coveted SVP promotion. Their rivalry is legendary, their bickering a constant source of office gossip. The only thing they agree on is that they can’t stand each other.

But when their biggest potential client, the eccentric billionaire Porter Beck, mistakes their fiery arguments for passionate romantic chemistry, their boss issues a shocking ultimatum. They have one weekend to pose as a devoted couple at Beck’s exclusive investor retreat and land his billion-dollar account. The catch? If they fail, they’re both fired. Now, sharing a suite and faking affection, Thea and Reid must navigate a minefield of forced proximity and one very inconveniently shared bed. The line between faking it and feeling it begins to blur, and suddenly, the biggest risk isn’t losing a deal—it’s losing their hearts.
