Mulan’s ready to get down to business. But when it comes to love, she hasn’t got a clue.

As the right hand of her fathers private equity company, Fa Mulan knows what it takes to succeed as a woman in a mans world: work twice as hard, be twice as smart, and burp twice as loud as any of the other finance bros she works with. So when her father unexpectedly falls ill in the middle of a critical acquisition, she is determined to see it through. Theres just one hitch: the family company in question is known for its ultra masculine whiskey brand, and the brood of old-fashioned aunts, uncles, and cousins who run itlead by the dedicated but overworked Shangwill only trust Mulans father, Fa Zhou, with the future of their business.

Rather than fail the deal and her father, Mulan pretendsshesFa Zhou. Since theyve only corresponded over email, how hard could it be to keep things moving in his absence?

But the email leads to a face-to-face meeting, which leads to an invitation to a week long retreat at Shangs family ranch. One meeting she can handle, but a whole week of cattle wrangling, axe-throwing, and learning proper butchering techniques, all while trying to convince Shangs dubious family that this young woman is the powerful private equity CEO theyve been negotiating with? Not so muchespecially as she finds it harder and harder to ignore the undeniable spark between her and Shang.

Can she keep her head in the game and make her father proud, all while trying not to fall into a trough, or in love with Shang?
