Because within hours of landing, her housing falls through, and she is left stranded in a city where nobody knows her, nobody is waiting for her, and she has absolutely nowhere to go. Her only option is a temporary apartment arrangement with Julian Brooks, a quiet, maddeningly handsome man who does not look like he enjoys company, conversation, or surprises. Julian has rules. Stephanie has pride. And neither of them is prepared for what happens when loneliness, proximity, and late-night vulnerability begin to blur the lines between strangers and something far more dangerous. In a city that feels too cold, too fast, and too unfamiliar, Stephanie must learn how to survive on her own without losing herself in the process. But the more time she spends with the man who was supposed to be only a roommate, the more she begins to realize that sometimes love does not arrive loudly. Sometimes it slips in quietly and becomes the very thing that starts to feel like home.
