From the back cover

Vivian and Julian built a company together, partners in business and in bed. When Julian sends her on a New Year's Eve errand to deliver adult toys to his hotel room, she is shut out at the door while another woman's voice drifts from inside. Back at the office, Julian tosses her a gift and offers to repay her ten times over, while Bella, the young new hire he has been favoring, brings Vivian a present and calls her an idol.

Julian breaks his own rule by handing Bella the Miami contract Vivian had earned, and the team celebrates Bella's success. At a company retreat Vivian declines to attend, Bella video calls her to show off a tea set, then posts a photo of Julian paying for it with a caption about people without boundaries.

Vivian must decide what she has been to Julian all these years, and whether the partnership she believed in was ever real.

"This isn't for you."

"She's too innocent. She doesn't trust anyone else to deliver this."

"If it's too big, I guess you'll be the one enjoying it."

He thought of something and laughed softly.
