Summary
Claire Beauchamp had the perfect plan to land a position at the prestigious Fraser & Associates, but a champagne-soaked disaster leaves her in a mortifying predicament in front of a total stranger. The real shock comes later: the man is Jamie Fraser, the owner of the agency and her new boss.
Jamie expected submission, but in Claire, he found an audacious woman who isn't afraid to challenge him. While he navigates a marriage of convenience to the dull Laoghaire, Claire tries to maintain her professionalism with the support of her friend Geillis and her ex-husband, Frank.
Between explosive meetings and venomous barbs, their initial hatred morphs into an uncontrollable sexual tension. High up on the agency’s thirtieth floor, Claire and Jamie wage a battle where the greatest risk isn’t losing a job—it’s surrendering to the only man capable of disarming her.

Summary
As he pulled his hands away, Ellie stirred slightly. She rolled over, instinctively seeking the warmth, and rested her head heavily in his lap.
Joel froze. Every protective wall he had built over the last two decades told him to move. But he didn’t move. He looked down at her small face, completely peaceful in sleep, and he found that he didn’t mind the weight of her head on his thigh.
The whiskey fuzz had been gone for hours. He was completely, painfully sober. As the clock on the desk quietly ticked past midnight, signaling the start of September 26th, a heavy realization settled over him. For the first time in twenty years, Joel wasn’t sitting alone in a dark room, getting filthy drunk. He was sober and keeping a little girl safe.
TLDR: Joel is a FEDRA officer. Twenty years of apocalypse have made him cold-blooded. He's supposed to be cruel. But he crosses paths with a "troubled" eight-year-old girl who changes him for the better.
