Ivy is young, unbothered, and flying at thirty-five thousand feet-literally. As a flight attendant for a luxury private jet company, her life is all designer luggage, champagne flutes, and high-altitude gossip. Until he boards.
A faceless don. A walking secret. A man whose silence speaks louder than the roar of a jet engine.
She thought he was just another mysterious passenger in first class. That is, until he resurfaces-this time not as a client, but as a secret collaborator at her airline's exclusive anniversary gala.
Now the skies aren't so clear.
And Ivy's heart?
Well... that's just another black box waiting to be opened.

The Ashford Affair
We should not be doing this." Julian groaned, trying to pull away but I grabbed on to him, pressing my burning body against his. "It's okay... No one has to know." I whispered, rubbing my lips against his neck and breathing in his scent. "What about your mother?" He muttered, an undercurrent of panic in his voice. "Forget about her." I muttered before slamming my lips on his, kissing him deeply. . . . She didn't know the man she seduced was her new stepfather. He didn't expect the girl in his bed to be his fiancée's daughter.

In a world of masks, the most dangerous thing is to be seen. Ivy was born to disappear - trained as a weapon, perfected as a lie.

Assigned as Ivy's partner, he's a complication she can't afford. But he sees her. The parts no one is supposed to. As secrets tangle and rehearsals turn into rituals, Ivy finds herself caught between the mission she was raised for and the boy who keeps stepping too close. What begins as a game of stolen glances and whispered threats spirals into something far more dangerous - betrayal, bloodshed, and a love Ivy never believed she could want. Because the ball is only the beginning. And once the mask comes off, there's no going back.Complete
