Rivals After Dark

Maya Alvarez built her career on control. A sharp PR executive with everything to prove, she doesn’t bend, she doesn’t break and she definitely doesn’t lose. But her next big event comes with one problem she can’t ignore: Tess Morgan. Rival. Distraction. And the one woman who knows exactly how to get under her skin.

Tess has clawed her way up the industry ladder with charm, grit, and more than a little stubbornness. She’s tired of Maya dismissing her. She’s ready to fight back and she’s not afraid to use their biting banter as fuel. Then Dean, a charismatic photographer, steps into the mix and tilts the balance even further.

What starts as sabotage and sharp words twists into something heavier desire neither can dismiss. Maya and Tess can’t escape the pull, not when Dean sees through both their defenses and captures more than just their faces behind the lens.

Under the glare of cameras and the strain of high stakes, rivalry starts to blur into something else. Passion collides with pride. Trust mixes with betrayal. And attraction threatens to upend everything they thought they wanted.

When pride and longing clash, will they surrender to the fire or let it burn them down?
