One perfectly planned life. One lidless cup of coffee. One beautiful disaster.
Amara Iris Morrison lives her life by the rule of thirds: precision, persistence, and a perfectly steady hand. As a top interior design student, her future depends on a flawless portfolio and a 9:00 AM presentation. She has calculated every risk, accounted for every variable, and spent hours ensuring her vision is perfect.
She didn't account for CK.
CK is architecture royalty, a man whose last name opens doors he'd rather stay behind. He's brilliant, exhausted, and the person who just sent a wave of hot espresso crashing across Amara's life's work.
In the aftermath of the ruin, something unexpected emerges from the wreckage. What should have been a bitter rivalry transforms into a friendship that feels like the only "safe" thing in a world of high-pressure deadlines and family expectations. CK understands the weight of a blueprint; Amara understands the soul of a room. Together, they are a perfect design.
But as the lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur, Amara realizes that safety is a dangerous place to stay. While the ink of their friendship is permanent, the heart doesn't follow a straight line. Now, she must decide: Is it better to stick to the original plan, or is the most beautiful thing they'll ever build the one they never saw coming?
Sometimes, the best designs happen when you color outside the lines.
