With a lot of pressure riding on this project and Iris's career hanging in the balance, there's simply no room for mistakes.When Iris flies to Portugal, she expects to uncover the truth behind Leo's infamous past, but she is unprepared for his stubbornness-or the undeniable chemistry that simmers between them. But as her interviewee and the boss's son, Leo is strictly off-limits...With a fierce rival threatening to derail Leo's comeback and the competition fast approaching, can they stay focused on their goals, or will love pull them under?
