Elowyn Beal thrives on structure, color palettes, and creative freedom. Work is her world, and she’s fine keeping it that way... until an accidental run-in at the grocery store with her blunt creative director flips her routine and her assumptions.

Jarvis Lawson is confident, composed, and impossible to read. He didn’t expect Elowyn to be the kind of woman who challenges him… or the kind who makes him want to slow down.

She’s reserved and he’s determined, but between project deadlines, they start designing an intimate connection that neither of them saw coming.
