Despite her demanding and mysterious job, Daphne Redgrave devotes an appropriate amount of time and effort into attracting whoever could be her next girlfriend. Who hasn’t broken into a secret laboratory to steal a monkey in the hopes of impressing a girl they’ve never met? And if it doesn’t work out, she knows there’ll always be someone else for her—until she meets Cinnamon.

Cinnamon Cheung has spent an appropriate amount of time convincing herself that she doesn’t want a girlfriend. For seven years, she’s been perfectly happy with her nerdy friends, nosy family, successful career as a therapist, and the possibly misguided hobby of trying to unmask which powerful techbro has been making her clients’ lives hell. She’s told herself she’s content, and she almost believes it, until Daphne crashes into her life.

Now that they know the other exists, the lies they tell themselves to stay alone begin to lose their hold. As Daphne and Cinnamon try to navigate what they could mean to each other, their dangerous projects align, putting everything in jeopardy. And it’ll take a lot more than stealing a monkey or ignoring the problem to get through it with their relationship, careers, and lives intact.
