I’m stuck in a fake relationship with my boss’s grumpy CEO.
He’s brooding, brilliant, and allergic to people. I’m the chaotic assistant trying to survive exile after destroying company property. We used to avoid each other. Now we’re pretending to be together.
Grayson Hart was supposed to tolerate me for a few weeks. Temporary arrangement. No connection. No feelings. But I move in and dismantle every defense he built. Color-code his life.
Fill his silence with laughter. Challenge his isolation. I see him soften during power outages. I feel him open up when no one’s watching. And somehow, I fall for him.
Then the board demands his return. The town watches. The office whispers. If anyone discovers we fell in love in that cabin, everything could fall apart. My credibility. His comeback. Our future.
But if I lose him… what’s left worth fighting for?
