Applied Pressure: A Grouchy Meets Snarky Romance

He scowls for sport. She destroys executives for a living.

Putting them together might cause a catastrophe.

Zack Brady prefers soil reports to people and silence to small talk. When a sinkhole starts swallowing the backyard of corporate strategist Nicole Kennedy, fixing the damage should be easy. Soil makes sense, but people don’t.

Proof of concept: Nicole can't stand him.

Nicole already has enough problems. Her house is sliding downhill, her boss bullied her into a charity race, and now her training partner is the same infuriating grouch overseeing the disaster in her backyard.

Zack thinks feelings are inefficient. Nicole uses sarcasm like a weapon. But somewhere between engineering inspections, sweaty training runs, and glaring at each other across her collapsing property line, the tension turns impossible to ignore.

Because fighting attraction is hard.

Resisting the spark while the ground literally shifts beneath them? Even bedrock has a breaking point.

Applied Pressure is a steamy romantic comedy featuring explosive chemistry, sharp banter, and the broody Brady family falling hard when they least expect it.
