Love by Accident

Leyla Cooper runs a beauty company worth multiple millions in San Diego. Her friends are loyal, her family is close, and she has banned men from her life since her ex broke her heart. That heartbreak left her feeling like a stranger to herself.

Nikolas Demir is a shy, brilliant, neurodivergent scientist, and he has loved Leyla since college. She believes he tried to sabotage her studies back then, so she can hardly stand to be in the same room with him.

Then her best friend Luke hires Nikolas as head of R&D at her company, forgetting that she has sworn to loathe the man. Soon after, circumstances push the two together, and Leyla agrees to coach Nikolas in dating so he can win over another woman.

The coaching sessions bring laughter and long looks, and then a kissing lesson. Leyla realizes she no longer wants to hand him to someone else.

Enemies turn into lovers in a workplace romance with faith themes, a secret tattoo and a hero who falls first and hard. The humour is light, and the question is how long Leyla can keep teaching a lesson she wants to take herself.
