She edits fantasies for a living… but this one could ruin her. Camille Moreau knows exactly what sells. Power. Control. The kind of tension that coils tight and refuses to let go. As an editor, she builds those stories every day… and keeps her own desires locked safely between the lines. Because wanting that kind of intensity in real life? That’s a line she doesn’t cross.
Marcus Hale is the line. The untouchable CEO. Cold. Controlled. Off-limits in every possible way. He’s her boss’s boss’s boss… and the one man she should never want. But Marcus has been watching her. He sees the way she pretends. The way she hides the hunger behind polite smiles and careful distance. And when he finally decides to act, it isn’t a suggestion. It’s a shift in power she never saw coming.
Because with Marcus, nothing is casual. Nothing is safe. He doesn’t just want her attention. He wants her surrender.
Behind closed doors, in a world built on control and carefully negotiated lines, Marcus introduces her to a side of herself she’s only ever edited onto the page… one where power is given, taken, and tested in ways she can’t pretend to ignore.
The deeper Camille falls, the more everything unravels. Boundaries blur. Control slips. And what started as something forbidden turns into something she might not be able to walk away from. But crossing this line comes with consequences. He’s her boss. He holds the power. And if this gets out… it won’t just cost her career. It could cost her everything.
