Not in Love

Rue Siebert has worked hard for her perfectly balanced life—loyal friends, hard-won financial stability, and a fulfilling career as a biotech engineer at one of the most exciting food science start-ups around. She’s poured everything into her job at Kline, and she’s proud of what she’s built. But when a ruthless corporate takeover looms on the horizon, Rue’s world is suddenly at risk—and so is her heart.

Leading the acquisition is Eli Killgore: sharp-suited, infuriatingly charming, and impossible to ignore. He’s the face of the enemy… and the one man Rue can’t stop thinking about. For Eli, closing this deal is personal, but so is Rue. She’s the one variable he never saw coming—and the one temptation he can’t resist.

As sparks fly and boundaries blur, Rue and Eli dive into a secret, no-strings affair with a ticking clock. But when ambition and desire collide, can love really survive a hostile takeover?

Perfect for fans of rivals-to-lovers romance, workplace tension, and slow-burn passion with a shot of corporate intrigue.
