Low Simmer

A teacher on a desperate career detour and a grumpy CEO collide in this deliciously slow-burn workplace romance.
After a humiliating rejection, Harlow ‘Low’ Vincent has had enough of faceless hiring. Determined to take charge of her future, she storms into Davenport Corp. If they're going to reject her, they must do it to her face.
The last person she expects to meet is Conor Davenport—the elusive tech founder and heir to the powerful Davenport empire. Their first meeting is unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. Somehow, though, Low gets the job.
There's just one catch.
She's been hired as Conor's assistant.
Conor is brilliant, guarded, and impossible to read. Working for him means navigating the demands of a new career and the impossible man himself. As the walls around his carefully controlled life begin to crack, Low discovers that the figure in the headlines is nothing like the man she’s coming to know.
But Conor isn't the only one hiding from the past. Low carries wounds of her own, and Conor always seems to be there when she needs saving. Low might discover that this thing simmering between them could bubble over into something much more...
