Beneath The Ice

a slow-burn romance that follows the unexpected journey of Sophie Bennett, a gentle and compassionate assistant, and her cold, distant boss, Adrian Blackwood, a man driven by duty and ambition.

Forced into an engagement due to his grandmother's wishes, Adrian struggles to maintain control over his emotions, keeping everyone at arm's length. Sophie, his quiet and empathetic assistant, has always kept her distance-until their lives collide in a world of secrets, expectations, and unspoken desires.

When Adrian's childhood friend, Violet, reappears, the fragile facade of their arrangement begins to crack, and Sophie finds herself caught between the pull of her growing feelings for Adrian and the tension Violet brings into their lives. The closer Adrian and Sophie become, the more complicated their relationship becomes, blurring the lines between duty and love.

As they navigate through the icy walls Adrian has built around his heart, they both must confront their pasts, their desires, and the uncertain future that looms over them. Will Sophie and Adrian find the warmth they've been searching for, or will the weight of their circumstances keep them apart forever?
