Description
Elena Vance runs Manhattan’s most elite crisis management firm with a lethal combination of sharpen-edged intellect and chilling composure. To the outside world, she is a fortress of business acumen, but inside her penthouse, her life is a crumbling disaster of high-stakes pressure and neglected motherhood. When her revolving door of nannies leaves her children adrift, she is forced to hire Chloe Summers—a graduate student whose vibrant, chaotic energy is the polar opposite of Elena’s sterile, controlled existence.
Chloe is meant to be a temporary fix, a professional boundary Elena is determined to uphold at all costs. But beneath Chloe’s unassuming exterior lies an uncanny intuition and a refreshing refusal to be intimidated by the iron-willed CEO. Chloe doesn’t just care for the children; she begins to dismantle the heavy armor Elena wears to survive her own world.
As the lines of employer and employee vanish, the two are drawn into a high-voltage attraction that challenges their status quo. Set against the backdrop of glittering boardrooms and intimate, stolen moments, this steamy romance explores the electric tension between an icy, high-powered perfectionist and the woman who finally dares to ask her to relinquish control. In the end, the ultimate challenge isn’t winning a boardroom battle, but letting someone else lead her heart.
