Cupid’s Arrow

Valentine’s Day is a business opportunity and love is a liability.

I run the most exclusive dating company in the country—I don’t fall for polished profiles or carefully chosen words.

I’m focused and firmly in control.

Then she walks into my office.

Sunshine. Confidence. Trouble.

The kind of woman who doesn’t try to impress me—and somehow wrecks my concentration anyway.

Every meeting knocks me off balance. Every smile dares me to forget my own rules.

And the day she ends up in my lap for a photo shoot?

That nearly finishes me.

I know better than to want my own employee like this.

But Valentine’s promotions turn into late nights, fake romance turns into something real, and suddenly I’m the one losing control.

The more I fight it, the harder it hits.

Cupid didn’t just graze me.

He struck dead center.

And the woman standing across from me?

She’s lining up her final shot—straight at my heart.
