Temporary Rowan

Even after losing his parents too young.
Even after life forced him to grow up faster than he should have.
Even when surviving means juggling jobs instead of chasing dreams.

He takes it all with a sweet smile

Kind, optimistic, and painfully selfless,

Rowan Berenette survives by juggling multiple jobs, believing that as long as he keeps going, hardships will eventually come to an end and life would be more beautiful

Somewhere far from his world of quiet hope and small joys stands a man who runs on control alone.

Lucien Blackwood

Cold. Ruthless. Perfectionist to the core.
The CEO of one of the country's most powerful companies-feared by employees and untouched by emotions.
Precise. Unforgiving.

Their worlds were never meant to collide.

But a single decision places Rowan behind the glass doors of a company where mistakes aren't tolerated-and kindness is seen as weakness.

He believes he's only there temporarily. But no one knows what will happen...

Because this time, the CEO who controls everything... isn't able to control his own heart.
