Former-tech-founder-turned-philanthropist Tessa is in hiding. Not like her flat-earther dad, who lives in his truck off the grid. She has friends and causes and almost a life. But no one, not even her besties, knows her past. While she yearns for redemption, her secrets keep her safe.
It must be karma when she’s hired to rescue a troubled biomedical research company and finds that its founder and chief scientist, Oliver, is the one man who looks at her like he knows all her secrets.
Or maybe he just knows her. Also terrifying.
He’s ten years younger, seriously nerdy, and allergic to taking risks that don’t involve the roll of a twenty-sided die.
If only she didn’t find that so hot.
So when Oliver proposes a deal – he’ll take a risk at work if she’ll take one with him – she agrees, knowing her heart is safe. Until she finds that chemistry isn’t isolated to the lab…or the supply closet…or the only hotel room left at a conference.
