BlaedLilac

Seraphina De Luca, an independent and optimistic woman with a painful past, has learned to navigate life on her own terms. Orphaned at a young age, she hides her wounds behind a quirky smile and a love for the simple things, like chai lattes and quiet moments on the train. But everything changes when she crosses paths with Cassian Vale—a man whose icy demeanor and cold eyes send a shockwave through her world.

Cassian, the heir to the Vale empire, is a man bound by duty, control, and the unyielding expectations of his father, Victor Vale. Raised to take over the family business, Cassian’s world is one of power and restraint, emotions locked away behind a wall he’s never been able to break through. Until Seraphina. Their chance encounters ignite something he’s never allowed himself to feel—a dangerous attraction that threatens the very control he’s fought so hard to maintain.

As their lives become increasingly entangled, Cassian and Seraphina are forced to confront not only their growing desire for each other but the painful truths they’ve both buried deep inside. Seraphina’s guarded heart is challenged by the pull of a man she knows she shouldn’t want, while Cassian’s dark past and the weight of his family’s expectations keep him from fully surrendering to his feelings.

Beneath the Ice is a story of forbidden attraction, unspoken fears, and the power of surrender. As their connection deepens, both must decide whether to break free from their pasts or let their unrelenting connection consume them. In a world where power, love, and family collide, Cassian and Seraphina will discover that the greatest strength lies not in control—but in vulnerability.
