She builds dreams. She calculates risks. But neither of them were ready for each other.
Lingling Zhao is a 35-year-old structural engineer-sharp, stoic, and openly lesbian in a male-dominated world. She's known for being cold, calculated, and brutally precise. She doesn't do small talk, and she definitely doesn't do distractions.
Enter Orm van Vliet, a 29-year-old rising star architect with big ideas, a bigger ego, and a stubborn belief that she's straight. She's bold, creative, and never backs down from a challenge-not even one as infuriating and irresistible as Lingling Zhao.
Assigned as co-leads on the biggest eco-architecture project in the Netherlands, what begins as a professional rivalry quickly spirals into something more obsessive. Late nights become lingering glances. Arguments become foreplay. And Orm's certainty about who she is starts to crack under the weight of everything Lingling awakens in her.
Love. Hate. Desire. Fear.
Some structures are meant to collapse-so better ones can rise.
