Pavel Artov is the junior boss in the company where I work. Handsome, sexy, smart, and impossible to ignore for any woman—Pavel has long had a reputation as an extremely loving man. I’m a single mother holding a decent position in his company. I’ve been disappointed with men for a long time; I don’t believe in love or solid relationships—I prefer brief encounters with no continuation. But my best friend is now married to Pavel’s older brother, which means our paths will cross again and again outside the walls of the office. Maybe, if we look more closely, each of us won’t be quite the way other people have grown used to seeing us. Could we become an exception for each other?
