A storm tears through the market, leaving leatherworker Rafi Moreno with a wrecked stall and one urgent commission he can’t afford to lose. The only safe outlet belongs to Micah Reed, the rule-following tech who insists on sharing space by his checklist.
One stall, one cord, one uneasy alliance. Sparks fly. Some electrical, some not. But when Micah shuts down Rafi’s high-stakes demo to protect the crowd, safety for one man means ruin for the other.

Forced proximity. Rivals-to-lovers. Competence kink. Steamy queer HEA.
