Summary

Noah Bennett has one priority outlast his impossible boss and keep his spot as junior editor. Every missed comma feels like a disaster waiting to happen, and the pressure never lets up. The last thing he needs? Adrian Parker. Rival publisher. Shameless disruptor. And somehow the man now sitting across from him.
 
Adrian thrives on chaos. With a grin that gets him out of trouble and the kind of confidence that rattles everyone else, he knows exactly how to get under Noah’s skin. Late nights on a joint project turn into caffeine battles, off-key karaoke, and arguments that edge a little too close to laughter.
 
But offices have thin walls, and gossip moves faster than email. For Noah, already clinging to his reputation, whispers about him and Adrian could be the final blow. Doubts creep in about trust, about risk, about whether he’s built for more than deadlines and damage control.
 
Adrian, behind the jokes and charm, wonders if he’ll ever be enough when it matters. Together they’ll have to prove this isn’t just a temporary truce. That maybe, amid the spilled coffee and relentless deadlines, something real is worth chasing.
 
So what happens when rivalry blurs into something neither of them planned?
