Maya Rao likes control. As the lead UX designer at Pivot, a high-stakes San Francisco tech startup, she measures her life in precise metrics, clean aesthetics, and perfectly timed dashboard loads. She doesn't do messy, and she definitely doesn't do workplace distractions.

Enter Tessa Brooks.

Tessa is the customer support lead, a whirlwind of messy blonde buns, oversized hoodies, and boundless empathy. She’s everything Maya isn’t—and she’s the one person who can effortlessly crash through Maya's carefully constructed firewalls.

When a disastrous product demo and a grueling launch week force them into late-night debugging sessions and close quarters, their sarcastic Slack banter turns into something entirely different. A stolen moment alone ignites a hidden, explosive chemistry that neither of them can ignore.

As the pressure of the launch pushes them to the breaking point, Maya and Tessa have to decide if what they're building in the dark is just a temporary beta test, or if they're finally ready to go live.

Soft Launch is a steamy, opposites-attract sapphic romance filled with sharp banter, intense physical chemistry, and late-night office tension.
