THE VARIABLE
Six years after their sterile, negotiated divorce, determined restaurateur Miles Vaughn and meticulous powerhouse lawyer Camille Wrenn maintain a relentless focus on one priority: perfect structure for their ten-year-old daughter, Evangeline. Miles runs his kitchens with disciplined chaos; Camille runs her life with razor-sharp logic. It's an efficient system of co-parenting, clean, and utterly empty of the passion they once shared.

Miles is the first to break the truce. Convinced their divorce was a critical organizational error, he launches a covert campaign to prove he is the only man compatible with her beautiful mess. He leverages his business savvy to expose every one of Camille's disastrous dates, determined to win back his family.

THE ALGORITHM
Camille, tethered to the elite legal world of her father, retaliates fiercely. She uses her legal expertise to construct an emotional cage around Miles, ensuring he remains a constant, organized fixture in their life-a desperate, unspoken mission to keep him close.

But when a professional disaster threatens to destroy the financial legacy Camille was raised to uphold, her strategy turns inward. Forced to choose between her family's ethical breakdown and the integrity of the man she divorced, Camille realizes her fight has never been about control. It's about earning back the chance to trade her prestigious name for his, admitting that she desperately wants the simple, dangerous safety of being Mrs. Vaughn-for herself, and for the anchor of their daughter's future.

"Are you suggesting we have an 'enemies with benefits' relationship? Because I'd hate it if you fell for me. I'd never feel the same way for you," I taunted. "That would never happen. This is purely physical. And you can call this pact whatever the hell you want, Monroe. I don't care," he uttered, as he abruptly stuffed my blouse into my mouth. "If you don't want the whole plane to hear how hard I'm fucking you, best bite down hard. Because I'm not going to hear begging. I'm warning you that now." Gulping, I obeyed and took a deep breath. In one swift, two-fingered plunge, he tore through my insides. The scream in my throat hummed in my chest as my hips jerked up and my eyes rolled back, pleasure rising like a tempest inside me.
