Her background in history and law school didn’t stop her from chasing her true passion: writing stories that spark joy and passion, and this series is a testament to her romantic vision.
Cooper set the series in the vibrant, tech-savvy city of San Francisco, where five friends navigate love and work at Cool Credit, a fictional startup. Her goal? To create relatable, flawed characters who grow through love, all while keeping readers laughing and blushing.
