How to Tame a Silver Fox

In the midst of her senior year at Yale, Harper Reeves is determined to navigate the challenges of her final semester with a semblance of dignity. Faced with the daunting prospect of graduating with a relatively small social circle, Harper sets her sights on avoiding her current predicament of being perceived as a "completely friendless loser." When her dad's closest friend, Chris Collins, suddenly crashes a gathering Harper is attending at her apartment, she instantly realizes that this unanticipated turn of events will undoubtedly leave a profound impact on her plans to salvage her last few months of college. Chris Collins exudes an air of confidence that is unmistakably imposing, coupled with an aura of mystery stemming from his shrewd business acumen and his affinity for protecting those close to him. The dynamic duo of protector and protectee quickly develops into a test of wills as Chris takes on an overprotective role, often leaving Harper frustrated by the sheer magnitude of his interference in her life. Her animosity towards Chris stems from his constant vigilance, which makes her feel constricted and micromanaged. Undeterred by Chris's intrusive behavior, Harper enlists the help of her trusted confidant and fellow Yale student, Maria, to orchestrate a strategic operation to manipulate Chris into falling in love with Harper, with the ultimate goal of compelling Harper's father to expel Chris from their lives. Maria shares Harper's skepticism regarding Chris's motives and her concerns about his influence on Harper, serving as a vital counterpoint to Chris's overprotective tendencies. Maria, with a tongue-in-cheek tone, assists Harper in conceptualizing a sophisticated plan, code-named "Operation Seduction," designed to lure Chris into a romantic relationship through the deployment of charm, wit, and a well-crafted façade of vulnerability. In theory, Harper envisions Chris succumbing to her charm, and subsequently, Harper's father would inevitably banish Chris from their lives, effectively putting an end to her dad's association with the overprotective and somewhat controlling Chris. However, an unforeseen development alters Harper's trajectory as she gradually grows accustomed to Chris's constant attentiveness. Every time Chris saves Harper from an unfortunate situation, her disdain for him gradually dissipates. In reality, Chris is attempting to shield Harper from the consequences of her own recklessness. As the lines between her carefully constructed façade and genuine emotions blur, Harper commences a grueling introspection, questioning whether her feelings for Chris are authentic or simply a product of her contrived plan, "Operation Seduction."
