Pruning the Penthouse Fae

Malo'i is forty minutes away from his weekend when the penthouse elevator sprouts carnivorous purple vines. The culprit is Vaea, a gorgeous, haughty orchid-fae who sprouted from an imported planter and immediately declared herself supreme empress of the 150-story Aethel-Apex tower. Malo'i does not care about ancient fae dominion; he cares about his union break. Armed with commercial weedkiller and relentless deadpan sarcasm, he sets out to prune her revolution. But when the building's automated defense network misinterprets their feud and locks the entire skyscraper down, the sworn enemies are trapped together in a bio-engineered jungle. To survive, they'll have to negotiate a truce—and ignore the intoxicating pheromones blooming between them.
