What happens in Office Romance?

The picture centres on CEO Jackie Cruz, who finds herself embroiled in legal action from competing airline Falcon Air.

AirCruz’s high-strung lawyer Peter Vance would ordinarily handle proceedings, but an unfortunate incident involving a food truck burrito renders him indisposed.

Enter Daniel, who, following a somewhat uncomfortable initial meeting with Jackie, resolves to ensure his superior emerges victorious. Yet romantic tension quickly develops and a passionate work excursion to the Dominican Republic blurs the lines of their working arrangement.
