    Summary

    Coffee shop owner Kate Sharma has spent five years locked in an annual battle of contract negotiations with her infuriatingly handsome landlord, Anthony Bridgerton, CEO of Bridgerton Properties. Now, with a crippling 7% rent increase looming, the future of Sharma House is in jeopardy.

    Meanwhile Anthony is under pressure from his company’s board (and his mother) to settle down and prove he’s a stable, family-focused leader.

    Anthony proposes a deal: a fake, contractual relationship to get his board and mother off his back. In return, he will drop Kate's rent increase to a manageable 3% and lock in the rate for three years.

    But as they begin their contractual obligations, navigate scrutinizing family members and high-stakes investor receptions, and start spending more time with each other, their carefully constructed boundaries quickly break down, and Kate and Anthony must decide if the professional reward is worth the risk of falling for the person they've spent years fighting.

    Summary

    “Bridgerton. Good morning.”
    The man in question, clad in an impeccable all black number, nodded back, smiling tightly.
    “Sharma.”
    He turned to his right, her left, down the same corridor Kate had planned to go down.
    Fuck.
    She fell slightly out of step with him, lagging a good foot or two behind him, manila folder hanging from her fingertips at her side. She had nothing, really, against Anthony Bridgerton. Really.
    But it was hard not to get Pavloved into dreading someone’s presence when he always seemed to dread yours.
    Or:
    Ever business savvy and ambitious, Anthony Bridgerton, CEO of young and rising fashion house Bridgerton, decides the edge that his family’s company needs to stand out among the old giants is…stronger corporate ethics. He’s not wrong—most luxury houses wouldn’t even bother. So when Agatha Danbury, trusted family friend, passes him a resume, he takes a chance and hires her recommendation to lead the new Corporate Social Responsibility department. But there is a problem. He didn’t realise she would be quite so…quite so…

    Summary

    Anthony Bridgerton is reeling from a series of personal and professional missteps when his family hires Kate Sharma to serve as General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer of the Bridgerton family office.

    Anthony views Kate as living proof that his family no longer trusts him or his judgment. Kate thinks Anthony is the most arrogant, unlikeable man she has ever met.

    When they actually start working together, they both quickly realize that the truth—like their feelings for one another—is far more complicated.
