He needed someone to save his company's reputation. He didn't expect her to change his.

When Nathaniel Steele's family empire is rocked by a federal investigation, he hires Isabella Chen—the sharpest crisis consultant in Manhattan—to manage the fallout. She's handled corporate disasters before. She knows exactly how to control the narrative, protect the innocent, and navigate rooms full of powerful men who don't want to hear the truth.

What she didn't account for was Nathaniel himself. A man who, unlike every other client she's had, keeps choosing accountability over convenience—even when it costs him.

And what he didn't account for was discovering that the woman rebuilding his public life has deeply personal reasons for needing this case to succeed. Reasons she's been carrying alone for years.

As the investigation closes in and the stakes get impossibly high, the line between professional and personal stops being a line at all.

Hostile Takeover of My Heart is a steamy enemies-to-lovers romance set in the world of corporate crisis management, where getting to the truth means risking everything—including the heart.
