Riley Vega has spent her life under the blinding lights of politics - the daughter of New York's powerful governor, raised to smile for the cameras, say the right words, and never let anyone too close. Behind the polished façade lies a woman who craves silence, snow, and the feeling of control that only a mountain slope can give her.
Senator Kamala Harris has lived a lifetime in the public eye - former District Attorney, Attorney General, and now one of the most influential women in Washington. Her days are carefully scripted, her nights lonely, her heart buried under the weight of duty and restraint.
When a snowstorm strands Kamala in upstate New York, the last person she expects to meet is Riley - fierce, magnetic, and half her age. What begins as a fleeting encounter on the mountain becomes something impossible to define: electric, healing, and terrifying.
As their worlds collide, Riley finds the one person who sees through her walls, and Kamala faces the one thing she's always feared - wanting something she can't justify. But in a world that watches their every move, love is both a sanctuary and a risk neither of them can afford.
