A commitment-phobic food writer tries to save her job from the chopping block by hiring a delivery driver. When a smoking-hot guy shows up on her doorstep, is he the answer she’s been looking for, or has she bitten off more than she can chew?
Thea Reyes lives a charmed life with a house full of plants, a dream job at the LA Times, and a book deal. But when the pandemic strikes, it all comes tumbling down: her boss threatens to fire her unless she agrees to use delivery services she’s morally opposed to, and she’s blocked on her book.
When a hot delivery driver named Gabe shows up on her doorstep, hiring him is the perfect answer. But now she can’t stop thinking about him. To nip this new distraction in the bud, she proposes a strictly casual, friends with benefits arrangement. Things are perfect…until they’re not.
As her pandemic fling grows complicated, Thea must choose between holding on to her previous life and risking her heart for something more.
