Summary
Nine years ago, Lena Luthor chose a Stanford job over love, not knowing Kara had already turned down the same position unless they both got hired. Now Kara's back as a visiting professor—Pulitzer-winning, cynical, and carefully distant.
Their research collaboration is everything Lena remembers: brilliant, electric, dangerous. But when Lena asks for a second chance, Kara runs to a war zone instead of risking her heart again.
This time, Lena's done letting fear make her choices. This time, she's choosing love first.

Summary
Lena is struggling to run a vineyard on her own while her out-of-touch fiancé Jack continues to make matters worse. Making her parents happy was one thing, but throwing her life away just to please them was another. Lena eventually hires a foreman, Kara, to help share some of the workload that is cultivating and harvesting grapes. The infatuation sets in almost immediately. How long can Lena deny her feelings? Or will her dreams of producing her own wine come to a sour and inevitable halt? The better question: How much more loneliness would she be risking either way?

Summary
“I’m not wearing the shoes.”
“You can wear your own shoes.”
Lena looked down at her house slippers. “These are Boss.”
Kara took a sip of her smoothie. “Then we’ll take it easy.”
They didn’t take it easy. Ten minutes in, Kara was moving with casual precision, tapping balls just out of Lena’s reach, smiling like she wasn’t being infuriating on purpose. Lena was sweating lightly, hair sticking to the back of her neck, and cursing every life decision that had led her to this moment, including - but not limited to - dating an overachiever with natural hand-eye coordination.
OR
Kara turns out to be a pickleball prodigy, determined to make CatCo the national champions of the corporate league. Lena turns out to have an irrational hatred toward William Dey, determined to get Andrea to fire him.

Hilarious fic where Kara plays pickleball and Lena sends Andrea emails with ridiculous reasons to fire William.
