Description
"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" Beatrice's voice was barely above a whisper, her pulse quickening as River leaned closer, the heat of his presence almost unbearable. "Like what?" he replied, his breath warm against her ear, teasing the edge of her control. "Like you want me to make the first move... but we both know you will." Beatrice Auclair never planned on being drawn to someone like River Mason-charming, infuriating, and impossible to ignore. Their banter in the office turns into something much deeper, much more dangerous. River is guarded, haunted by a past he won't open up about, yet he's the one person who makes her feel alive in ways she wasn't expecting. As their connection intensifies, Beatrice finds herself tangled in the pull of a man who isn't ready to commit but refuses to let her go. When the tension between them ignites, Beatrice is forced to make choices she isn't ready to face-about love, heartbreak, and the possibility of losing herself in the process. As she navigates her life in the office, she's left wondering: is this just another dead-end romance or the beginning of something that will change her forever?
