Worthy Opponents

Worthy Opponents by Danielle Steel

This book is about love, starting over, friendships, and a business partnership. Spencer runs a very luxurious department store that she inherited from her grandfather when she was in her early thirties. From a young age, she knew what she wanted to do, and she absolutely loved the department store that her grandfather owned.

She got married and divorced a few years later after having twin boys. She faced a few challenges running the store because it was not located in the best neighborhood, and it was financially compromised by her father's poor management skills. As CEO, she is dedicated to keeping her beloved grandfather's legacy - a department store in New York City - running and profitable.

When she is approached by Mike, who is known for taking over companies and had his sights set on her company, she knows she can't sell and let management of the store fall into the hands of someone outside of the family.

Mike Weston is a well-respected, successful investment broker who is attracted to both the store and its CEO. His offer to invest is soundly rejected by Spencer, even though she desperately needs the cash. However, circumstances force her to consider his offer.

I enjoyed this slow-burn romance; Spencer and Mike make a sweet couple and complement each other. There is also plenty of action in the story that kept me turning the pages until everything was resolved.
