A tragedy sends my New Zealand workplace into chaos. Enter Neil Kingston: the new CEO, more stealth assassin than stuffy bigshot. Guarded, prickly, and enigmatic, he swiftly cuts half the team--including me, Milly Cross. At twenty-seven, I've lost my parents, dropped out of med school, and now I'm jobless. My world is crumbling, but Mr. Kingston isn't done with me yet. Thrown back into his orbit, I find myself fascinated by the man I used to despise. He's infuriating, charming... and totally off-limits. As circumstances force us to work closely together, I discover layers to Neil that both surprise and delight me. But the closer we become, the more dangerous the stakes. Can I trust a man with so many walls? And what about the shadowy forces that threaten to tear us apart? "Clashing with the CEO" is a slow-burn office romance full of blush-inducing moments. Experience the push and pull of forbidden attraction, set against a backdrop of corporate politics and succession schemes.
