Ethan Blackwood runs Duality Interior Design & Architecture with iron control, and he never lets emotion interfere with business.
Until
Isla Bennett.
Isla is one of his most talented designers: sharp-tongued, defiant, and completely unimpressed by his authority. She pushes his buttons in meetings, challenges his vision, and dares him to react.
When a high-stakes design summit sends them to a remote mountain lodge, a brutal snowstorm traps them together. No escape. No distance. Just forced proximity, simmering tension, and a deal that can’t afford mistakes.
As confidential designs leak and betrayal threatens to destroy the company from the inside, control turns into temptation, and professional boundaries blur beyond repair.
She doesn’t want to behave.
He doesn''t want to lose control.
But snowed in with nowhere to run, giving in might cost them everything… or become the one risk worth taking.
