He’s my best friend’s grumpy brother, my new landlord, and the one man I’m strictly forbidden to touch.
Ethan Rourke is a surgeon with a God complex and a house like a museum.
Cold. Sterile. Terrifyingly orderly.
I’m a chaotic artist with a cat who thinks prize roses are chew toys.
When I got evicted, he offered me his guest house.
Big mistake.
Now I’m living fifty feet away from the most brooding, damaged, insanely hot man in town.
He wants silence.
I bring noise.
He has strict rules about "boundaries" and "quiet hours."
I have a bad habit of breaking them.
We are fire and ice.
We shouldn't work.
But when a late-night argument turns into him pinning me against a wall covered in paint…
I realize the ice is just a shield.
And the fire is going to consume us both.
He thinks he’s too broken to love.
He says I’m just a temporary mess he has to clean up.
But the way he holds me in the dark tells a different story.
I’m ready to paint a future with him.
If only he doesn't scrub me out of his life first.
