One woman's trash is another woman's treasure. A woman with high standards. A rival coworker. And the promotion that stands between them . . . Coder Marina Spicer has no time to wa ste when it comes to love, hence her long list of dealbreakers. Frustrated by the online dating world, she created Dealbreakers, an anonymous app where women review how men stack up to their internet profiles. Her high standards have served her well at work, so why not in love? Enter Lucas Kennedy. A charming Irish content writer, he's the only one standing between Marina and her long-deserved promotion. Much to Marina's chagrin, the two are paired on a project to test out date ideas, ultimately determining which of them will run the department. Taking a peek at Dealbreakers hoping to learn some dirt about her rival, she finds he's the worst-rated man on the entire app. As Lucas and Marina argue their way through mixing cocktails, salsa dancing, and throwing axes, Marina finds herself having more fun than she's had in years. So when temptation becomes too strong to resist, Marina allows herself to break some of her own rules. After all, if the Dealbreakers say he's Mr. Wrong, he can't possibly be Mr. Right . . . can he?
