Darby Tate has spent years proving herself in a cutthroat industry. Smart, driven, and loyal, she thought her biggest challenge at RH Enterprises would be surviving her sharp-tongued director and endless late nights on the marketing floor. But one chance encounter with the company's elusive CEO changes everything. Alec Ralph is powerful, calculating, and untouchably British-running his empire with an iron grip. Cold. Commanding. Always in control. Until Darby. From the moment their eyes meet, tension simmers between them-dangerous, forbidden, impossible to ignore. He's her boss. A man who could destroy her career with a single word. Yet every time she tries to run, Alec is there. Demanding. Possessive. Unrelenting. When a corporate trip traps them alone in a snowbound lodge, months of restraint ignite into two days of fire neither can deny. But passion has consequences, and Alec isn't a man who plays fair. He's ruthless enough to bend companies-and people-to his will. Now Darby must decide: walk away from everything she's built... or surrender to the man who refuses to let her go.

Christine leads a quiet, structured life as a pharmacist by day and a secretive, reclusive painter by night-expressing her strange, vivid dreams on canvas, then hiding them away from the world. She's content staying in her own lane, until her outgoing coworker and self-declared best friend, Ashley, yanks her out of bed and into the chaotic world of an underground art show. Ashley's thrilled-Christine, not so much. But everything changes when Benicio, a magnetic and brooding professional painter with a reputation for seeing what others overlook, catches sight of Christine-and more importantly, her work. Benicio is intrigued not just by her art, but by her-the way she shrinks from the spotlight yet speaks volumes through paint. The more Christine opens up about the stories behind her surreal, dream-soaked pieces, the deeper Benicio falls-not just for her talent, but for the way her mind works. He pushes her, gently but relentlessly, to stop hiding and start showing the world what she sees in her sleep. What begins as a reluctant mentorship blooms into something deeper, stranger, and far more powerful than either of them expect. And just as Christine begins to accept the idea of being seen, a final dream-and one last painting-hints that her art might be more than expression. It might be prophecy.

Zea Alaina James is your average twenty-three year old- besides maybe the fact that she'd rather stay quiet, stay out of the way, and stay absolutely all to herself. Your average introvert if you will. Jonah Benjamin Hayes is your average twenty-five year old- besides the fact that he can and will have and hold a conversation with literally almost anybody and won't bother talking the ear off to anybody willing to listen. Your average extrovert if you will. One thing about Zea- she doesn't like to talk much. For a reason. One thing about Jonah- you couldn't get him to shut up. Nothing, not even his constant stutter that sometimes trips him up at times, is enough to stop him from trying to make someone's day simply by trying to have a conversation with them. What happens when these two worlds collide? Do they have more in common then most would think? Or will they allow life to drift them apart from one another over time? Read to find outtttttt Ps I SUCKKKKK at summaries.
