One viral kiss wrecked her future. Five years later, the man who lit the match buys her building—and assigns her to fix his image.
Elle Hartman rebuilt her life brick by careful brick, trading scandal for strategy. Now Roman Wolfe—ruthless heir turned CEO—makes her the face behind his redemption campaign. The office becomes a war zone: forced proximity, a contract she can't refuse, and rules that blur the second he looks at her like a promise and a punishment. From Manhattan boardrooms to Paris galas, every appearance is a chess move, every touch a trap. The tabloids want blood, his rivals want leverage, and the past won't stay buried: a viral video, a jealous ex, a returning fiancée, and a family empire that feeds on fire. To keep her career—and her heart—intact, Elle must control a story that refuses to behave, while Roman asks for the one thing she swore she'd never give again: trust. High-heat, high-gloss, enemies-to-lovers with an age gap, razor-sharp banter, and a hard-won happily ever after.
