SOME CONTRACTS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO BREAK.

Matilda Ruffet, a once dedicated and ambitious project manager, finds herself working in obscurity as an assistant to the CEO and current lessee of the Winter Tower, a historical New York City landmark.

It was a scandal that forced her there but a nearly one-hundred-year-old clause that allows her to stay. And because she has been blackballed in her career of choice, she is grateful that an agreement between her great-great grandfather and the original owner of the tower grants her the benefit of another career.

But Colin Eamon Treadaway III, the tower's charismatic and demanding new lessee, resents her and the clause. By his calculations, she is a liability, in more ways than one, and he wants her gone. But how is he going to achieve that when he wants her for himself?

Will he find a way to breach one promise only to have to make another one?
