The Deal Breaker

A billionaire tech mogul. His indispensable housekeeper. And the resignation letter that triggers a total system failure.

Tech genius Dash Cabot has billions in the bank, but he’s about to lose the only thing money can’t replace. For a decade, Iris Jacobs has been his best friend, his housekeeper, and his emotional anchor. She manages his Silicon Forest mansion and his chaotic life flawlessly, while her own culinary dreams have remained on the sidelines. But after being taken for granted—and forgotten at Christmas—Iris is finally done.

Determined to launch her own career, Iris hands in her apron. She’s ready for a life that doesn’t revolve around her oblivious boss. For Dash, losing Iris isn't just a glitch; it’s a catastrophic crash of his perfectly coded existence. Panic sets in as he realizes his status quo is crumbling, and for the first time, he’s facing a problem he can’t fix with a checkbook.

To make her stay, Dash must prove he finally sees her as more than just the help and his childhood best friend. As the line blurs into intense pining and deep connection, he must risk his heavily guarded heart or lose the only woman who truly knows him.
