Jenni Park didn't build Veil to play nice with Silicon Valley. She built it to stop powerful people from rewriting the rules behind closed doors.
Nate Mercer, on the other hand, built his company to win. He's polished, relentless, and exactly the kind of founder Jenni loves to hate—until a ruthless investor forces their rival startups into an "all-hands" partnership that feels a lot like a corporate hostage situation.
Suddenly, Jenni and Nate are sharing space, sharing deadlines, and sharing the same terrifying countdown to a public launch that could make them—or destroy them. Their teams are watching. The investor is pressuring. Someone inside the system is trying to force a "merge" Jenni never agreed to.
And the worst part? The more Jenni is pushed into Nate's orbit, the harder it gets to tell where the rivalry ends and the chemistry begins.
Between snarky stand-offs, late-night firefights, chaotic conference disasters, and one very questionable "lucky" doll chair, they'll have to outsmart a game rigged by people with money and influence… without losing their companies, their reputations, or their hearts.
Because in Silicon Valley, the only thing more dangerous than a hostile takeover is falling for the one person who knows exactly how to break you—and might be the only person who can help you rebuild.
Merge Conflict is a fast, funny, enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy with workplace banter, forced proximity, startup chaos, medium heat, and a happily-ever-after you'll want to commit to.
