Her Rival Tastes Better

Harper Knox has built a career out of absolute control. As Senior Art Director at Voss & Laine, her life is measured in tailored blazers, rigid routines, and flawless visual campaigns. She doesn’t have time for distractions, and she certainly doesn’t have time for her newest competition.
Sloane Mercer sees right through the armor. The agency’s sharpest Senior Copywriter knows how to read a room, and more importantly, she knows how to read Harper. When a massive restructuring forces their teams to merge, they are pitted against each other for a career-defining promotion to Creative Director.
They are supposed to be building a cohesive pitch. Instead, they’re building a war zone.
But late nights in the office, stolen glances across the boardroom, and a dangerous proximity begin to blur the lines of their rivalry. Sloane’s strategic patience and devastating insight slowly dismantle Harper’s icy exterior, revealing a scorching desire neither can ignore. What starts as a ruthless battle for dominance soon becomes an intoxicating negotiation of power, trust, and surrender.
With the pitch—and their careers—on the line, Harper and Sloane must decide if winning is everything, or if giving in is the ultimate victory.
