He's her employer—off-limits, older, and far too tempting.

She's the woman he should have never noticed.

In a world bound by propriety, Miss Amara Adams enters the firm to earn a living—not to fall in love. But when her quiet strength and sharp wit catch the attention of Mr. Ashford, her enigmatic and powerful superior, rules begin to crumble. Behind his polished exterior lies a man burdened by secrets... and a desire he can no longer suppress.

Duty, scandal, and temptation collide in this slow-burn, forbidden romance where every stolen glance threatens to ruin them both. Will Amara risk everything for a love society won't allow?

Perfect for fans of slow-burn longing, age-gap tension, and soul-shattering romance that lingers long after the final page.
