An ordinary, unremarkable Friday. The clock’s hand moves lazily forward, as if deliberately stretching out the workday. The head of the department disappeared from the horizon yesterday — and that noticeably demoralized the team. Employees are doing everything they can to postpone the moment when they’ll finally have to dive into their tasks. In the air lingers an unofficial idea — to throw a spontaneous mini‑party… Suddenly, loud footsteps in the corridor make the sales department instantly tense. Everyone falls silent, eyes turning toward the door… It swings open sharply, revealing a stranger. The ladies exhale in unison — as if struck straight in the heart. The men smirk ambiguously, immediately sizing up the rival. And I… I feel it: he’s not here by chance.

The second book in the "Canadian Eagles" series. The story of Sarah and Hunter. Each book is a standalone novel. It can be read separately, but I still recommend starting with "Reliability Factor".
