Encryption of the Heart (Love, Tech, & Magic #1)

It was an attraction, no, a distraction she couldnt afford, and that was before she found herself coiled up in a blackmail scheme.

Olline Tavos is a brilliant software engineer. But that brilliance is suspiciously absent in her romantic life.

After a humiliating break-up, Olline does the only sensible thing she can think of: take a high-paying contract far from home and the emotional baggage she’d rather leave behind. With her specially grown houseplants and her earth magic to keep her company, Olline is determined to lose herself in work, and only work.

At least, that’s the plan.

Then a mysterious and dangerously handsome...

Olline Tavos is a brilliant software engineer. But that brilliance is suspiciously absent in her romantic life.

After a humiliating break-up, Olline does the only sensible thing she can think of: take a high-paying contract far from home and the emotional baggage she’d rather leave behind. With her specially grown houseplants and her earth magic to keep her company, Olline is determined to lose herself in work, and only work.

At least, that’s the plan.

Then a mysterious and dangerously handsome man attacks Olline outside her office. At best, she hopes he’s a jumpy security guard. At worst, a thief she’ll have to flatten with her magic. What she’s not expecting is for this man’s sudden appearance to reveal the conspiracy she is, unknowingly, at the center of. Schemes that can cost Olline not only her magic and life as she knows it, but the freedom of countless others as well.

Can Olline outwit the people looking to take advantage of her talent? And can she protect her fragile heart in the process? Olline has worked too hard to stand on her own and she won’t let someone’s vile corruption (or a gorgeous man who flirts as easily as he breathes) undo her hard work. But they’ll have to work together if they want any hope of outsmarting their common enemy.

Despite the danger, losing her heart may be the bigger threat.
