Hostile Takeover (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798287483470)

Owen Cross has built his life on control-disciplined, unshakable, and utterly untouchable. Luke Ramirez is everything he refuses to be: charismatic, chaotic, and dangerously good at getting under his skin. They've been rivals from day one, locked in a silent war of sharp glances, clipped words, and impossible tension.

Now they're stuck working together on the most high-stakes project of their careers-and there's nowhere to hide. Every meeting is a standoff. Every touch lingers too long. And every late night in the office pulls them closer to a line neither one of them is ready to cross.

But something deeper is brewing beneath the sarcasm and power plays. Something neither of them dares name.

When a corporate espionage plot threatens everything they've worked for, desire becomes a liability, and trust could cost them everything. They'll have to decide whether winning means sacrificing what might finally be real... or risking it all to fall together.

Disclaimer

Hostile Takeover is a slow-burn MM romance with emotionally charged tension, deeply felt connection, and physical intimacy that stays closed-door. While desire simmers beneath the surface and kisses carry weight, there are no explicit on-page sex scenes.

This story focuses on emotional vulnerability, sharp chemistry, and the slow unraveling of two guarded men as they fall-reluctantly but undeniably-for each other.
