Description
Dr. Mara Sinclair lives by one rule: never fall for your academic rival. But Dr. Declan Whitmore-brilliant, infuriatingly charming, and her biggest competition for a career-defining grant-makes that very difficult. After accidentally deleting his research files, Mara finds herself forced to collaborate with him to salvage both their projects. Late nights in the lab, heated debates, and undeniable chemistry blur the line between rivalry and something far more dangerous. As their professional and personal worlds collide, Mara must decide: is winning worth losing the one person who challenges her in every way that matters? A witty, STEM-filled rivals-to-lovers romance about ambition, unexpected connections, and the messy equations of the heart.
