"He's cold, ruthless, and untouchable. Until I asked the one question he never saw coming."
Luna Santiago is a fearless journalist who's never backed down from chasing a story-until her editor gives her an impossible assignment: Get an exclusive interview with Ethan Villareal, the elusive CEO known as The Ice King... or lose your column.
Ethan Villareal is the man everyone fears in the corporate world: dangerously smart, breathtakingly intimidating, and utterly private. No one dares to cross his lines-until Luna does.
One question changes everything, and instead of shutting her out, Ethan offers her a deal: Work for me for one month as my personal researcher, and I'll give you the truth you're looking for.
Thrown into his high-powered world of boardroom wars, corporate secrets, and dangerous rumors, Luna soon learns that behind the cold eyes is a man with walls higher than the skyline he owns. But the more she pulls at his armor, the more she risks losing her heart...
And when business and emotions collide, one thing becomes certain: some questions aren't meant to be asked-because the answers can change everything.
