Carina Wu holds the title of Director of the ASSET, a new program she presented herself as knowing inside out.
The trouble is that she still cannot say what the ASSET actually is, and she is scheduled to present on it in two weeks.
If the résumé she padded to win the job comes apart in public, the paycheck she chased will end in a firing.
Rhys Stiltskine, the unpleasant coworker she secretly nicknames Rumpelstiltskin, offers to help her keep the story standing, though not without a fee.
He stalls over what he wants until he admits it is something money cannot buy, leaving Carina unsure whether that price is hers to meet.
