At twenty-four, Skye thought finishing school would feel like freedom. Instead, it feels like standing at the edge of something she isn't sure she can survive. When she lands a job at one of the most powerful publishing companies in the city, she tells herself it's just work. Just a stepping stone. Her new boss is nothing like her. At thirty-six, the CEO is disciplined, distant, and relentlessly devoted to her company. Emotions are a liability. Control is everything. Skye is hired to assist her, to stay quiet, to keep up-and to never become personal. But long days, shared silences, and moments that slip through the cracks begin to blur the lines. Skye's carefully hidden struggles start to surface, and the woman who built her life on order is forced to confront something she never planned for: vulnerability, in someone else and in herself. As ambition collides with intimacy, both women must decide what they are willing to risk-for their careers, for their carefully constructed lives, and for each other.

Every morning, Serenity shows up to the office before anyone else - including Ezra Langford, her infamously cold, calculating, and annoyingly attractive boss. She brings him coffee, not because he asks, but because she wants to - always with a handwritten quote on the cup, something cheesy, optimistic, and completely not his style. Or so she thinks. Because while Ezra never says thank you, never even cracks a smile... he's kept every single cup lid with her notes. Hidden in the bottom drawer of his desk, they're the only bright spot in his otherwise grayscale life. But when Serenity's warmth starts to get under his skin - and into his heart - he'll have to decide if he's brave enough to step out of hiding and tell her the truth: She's not just his coffee girl. She's the only reason he still believes in good things. »»-------¤-------«« "So, uh... any regrets on the merger yet?" "Only that Chase ordered shrimp from that place on 8th again." I laugh, too hard and too quickly. "You didn't like it?" "It tastes like regret." I grin. "That's what he said about your budgeting spreadsheet." Ezra's mouth twitches. Not a smile, not really. But close. I should say something professional. Something normal. Instead- "Do you really read them?" I ask softly. He looks up. "The quotes," I clarify, nervous now. "Do you actually read them, or... just collect them?" His eyes hold mine. There's no teasing in them. No cold, hard CEO mask. "I read them," he says. »»-------¤-------«« Word Count: 26, 074
