A make-or-break investor pitch. One hotel room. And a grumpy CEO I definitely shouldn’t want.
Four years. That's how long I've worked with control freak Bennett Cross to build the company. He's brilliant, infuriating and looks at me like I'm a problem he can't solve.
I have one rule: never fall for a man who can destroy your career.
Then the Investor Summit loses my hotel room.
One suite. One bed. One storm that kills the power and leaves us rehearsing the pitch in the dark.
His hand finds mine—and I stop remembering why I made that rule.
When he finally stops fighting what's between us, he touches me like I'm the only thing he can't control.
But his board member wants me invisible.
Until now, Ben has never chosen anyone over the company.
His protective side surprises me. And maybe this time could be different.
Now I’m risking everything on a man who's never broken his own rules.
Until me.
One hotel room. One bed. And a silver fox boss I can't afford to want.
Marcus Kane is the reason I can't breathe in conference rooms. He's the composed Senior VP of my division who almost kissed me a year ago—then pulled back. I told myself it was for the best.
I was wrong.
For twelve months, we have both professionally ignored what could have been.
Now I'm six weeks from my big promotion. The last thing I need is temptation wrapped in a bespoke suit.
We have every reason to keep our distance.
Then the snowstorm strands us in the last available hotel room. One bed.
When he touches me like I'm precious—when he asks instead of takes—I stop caring about the consequences.
One night. That was the deal.
But by morning, I knew… one night was nowhere near enough.
Now I have to choose: the career I've built - or the man who ruined me for anyone else.

After years in the corporate world, I've returned to my first love—writing steamy romances filled with tension, chemistry, and unforgettable characters. I draw from my experience in tech and media to write stories that bring high-stakes ambition and emotional depth together in addictive, fast-paced reads.
I've been telling stories since I was a teenager, always drawn to the kind of worlds you can get lost in. Now I channel that passion into contemporary romances that explore power, desire, and the risks we take for love.
When I'm not writing, I stay active at the gym, in yoga classes, or getting out on the lake whenever I can.
