Love by Accident: Sweet Enemies to Lovers Rom-Com (The Elements of Love Book 2)

About this book

Leyla Cooper has it all: a thriving beauty empire in sunny San Diego and a life surrounded by those who love her. However, beneath her feisty, no-nonsense CEO exterior lies a guarded heart. Following a devastating past heartbreak, she enforces a strict “man ban” to protect herself, convinced she is better off alone. Her carefully ordered world flips upside down when Nikolas Demir, a brilliant, neurodivergent scientist she has despised since college, is accidentally hired as her new head of R&D. While Leyla remains convinced Nikolas once tried to sabotage her career, the truth is far different—he has been in love with her for years. When they are forced to collaborate, Leyla begrudgingly agrees to act as his dating coach to help him woo another woman. What begins as a professional arrangement quickly spirals into a tangle of lingering glances, late-night strategy sessions, and an accidental kissing lesson. As the lines between teacher and student blur, Leyla realizes that her enemy is actually the man she has been waiting for all along. This charming enemies-to-lovers workplace romance proves that love often arrives when you least expect it—and that the best plans are the ones that go perfectly wrong.
