Description
Rising high above the bustling streets of New York, Ivy Brooks has spent her career building glass towers, but she has yet to construct a life that feels like home. Between the demands of a high-pressure architecture firm and the expectations of a family legacy that feels like a weight, Ivy is desperate for a fresh perspective. Enter Maren, a woman who offers exactly the kind of grounded clarity Ivy didn't realize she was missing.
What begins as a chance meeting blossoms into a slow-burning connection that challenges Ivy to scale back the professional walls she has meticulously erected. As they navigate the complexities of their burgeoning bond, Ivy finds herself pulled away from the sterile heights of the boardroom and into the messy, vibrant heart of community and genuine belonging.
Set against the cozy backdrop of crisp autumn air and changing foliage, this story is a heartfelt exploration of what it truly means to build a foundation that lasts. Rachel Lacey weaves a tender, spicy, and deeply authentic romance that proves the best view isn't just about reaching the summit—it’s about finding the one person worth staying on the ground with. It is an uplifting, beautifully written tribute to identity, love, and the courage to finally design a life on one's own terms.
