The Code Between Us {BOOK 1}

It was supposed to be the perfect proposal.

Cole Rivers had the ring, the rooftop reservation, and The Weeknd songs queued for post dessert vibes.
Three years of love, laughter, and late night ramen with Natalia-all leading to this one moment.

But instead of "yes," he got:

"Cole, meet my fiancé... Dominic."

Not just any Dominic.
Dominic Crane.
GraveTech CEO. Power-suited perfection.
Cole's boss.
And apparently... Natalia's upgrade.

Cue spiral. Champagne-fueled heartbreak.
A blackout night with 18-year-old scotch.
One very illegal attempt to hack Dominic's company out of spite.

But fate and a brutal corporate shake-up-have other plans.

Now Cole is stuck working side-by-side with the man who shattered his relationship... and maybe something else he's not ready to name.
Because Dominic?
He's infuriating. Arrogant. Cold.

Also: stupidly attractive.
Unfairly competent.
And magnetic in a way that short-circuits every defense Cole thought he had.

What starts as sabotage turns into banter.
Banter turns into tension.
And heat turns into late nights, stolen glances, and lines that don't stay drawn for long.

But can Cole really fall for the man who broke him?
And if he does... who's the real traitor, Dominic or his own heart?

Love was never part of the code.
But some bugs don't want to be fixed.
