Against the Rules
by Hayden, Bree
Against the Rules turns the office floor into a battlefield where the stakes are as much about professional pride as they are about the heart. When two people who are fundamentally mismatched in their approach to work and life are forced into close quarters, the resulting friction is both sharp and surprisingly tender. Bree Hayden balances the witty, high-octane banter of a workplace rivalry with the quiet, vulnerable moments of personal transformation that happen when you finally let someone see past your defenses. The pacing is snappy and lighthearted, yet it never shies away from the raw, intimate ache of falling for someone you thought you were supposed to despise. It is a perfect pick for anyone who loves watching characters dismantle their own walls and for readers who appreciate a romance that feels earned through both laughter and hard-fought growth.
