Synopsis
The story is a contemporary, character-driven novel centering on Briar Clark, a disabled event planner, and Grant Hunt, her antagonistic liaison at The Breaker Group. Told through alternating perspectives (primarily Briar and Grant), the narrative explores their professional and personal conflicts as they work together to launch a significant business opening.
Briar, who uses a wheelchair and other mobility aids due to chronic illness, is determined to prove her abilities in the face of workplace microaggressions and Grant’s overt skepticism and ableism. Grant, initially resentful and dismissive, struggles with his own biases and insecurities.
Their antagonism gradually transforms after Briar confronts Grant’s prejudices. A heated exchange leads to a passionate, complicated physical relationship, which is soon discovered, resulting in workplace gossip and professional consequences. Despite the fallout, both characters experience significant growth—Briar is offered a leadership role at The Breaker Group, and Grant is forced to reassess his assumptions about disability and teamwork.
A parallel subplot follows Briar’s best friend, Liliana, as she deals with chronic illness and discovers her husband’s infidelity—with Briar’s own sister. This subplot deepens the novel’s exploration of resilience, betrayal, and the power of female friendship.
The story ultimately emphasizes themes of ableism, self-advocacy, workplace power dynamics, and the complexities of intimacy. It concludes with Briar and Grant striving for a fresh start and Liliana beginning her own path to recovery. The novel blends sharp dialogue, emotional introspection, and moments of erotic tension, focusing on acceptance, vulnerability, and the unpredictable nature of love and life.
