    Highly recommend this!!! I'll be heartbroken if anyone doesn't read it!!! "🦊. When a fox meets a fox, this is the unforgettable love story hidden beneath the fox's cunning mask." This is a story of reconciliation after a broken relationship. I absolutely love the characters of the male and female leads; they have a wonderful bickering-lovers vibe. Both are workaholics; they won't give up their careers for love, but they also persevere in their love amidst the cruel business world and family conflicts. They're evenly matched, a powerful alliance—it's so cool! The author is incredibly talented at writing!!!
