Carmen Chambers has spent years mastering control - in her career, her image, and every guarded inch of her heart. But when a chance encounter at an airport turns into something far deeper, she's forced to confront the one thing she can't manage: feeling.
Jake Grayson is everything she shouldn't want - confident, disarming, and far too perceptive. Their chemistry is instant, their connection undeniable, and the fallout... inevitable.
As Carmen's world starts to blur between desire and vulnerability, one question lingers: how much of herself is she willing to risk for love?
Because love always comes with a cost.
