After an abrupt departure from her previous career, Presley never expects to be so well received at the rival company, despite the null and void NDA and questionable, discreet reason why she parted ways. But Presley was not raised to mosey her way through life, having been raised by her aunt after her parent’s death, she’s bumped uglies with many things, some of which she’s dealt with accordingly, and some she has not.

Will is fed up with his deadbeat IT manager, and so he praises Presley’s headstrong and intelligent ways when she takes over that department. Just five minutes with this woman has him hooked, and soon he realizes just how much her heart is in the job.
